Guitarist Tom Ollendorff is undoubtedly one
of the most exciting talents to emerge from the United Kingdom in recent times.
Combining a lyrical sensibility that elegantly makes room for space and
silence, he has a rhythmic ease and a seductive sound that adds to his appeal.

Tom’s spring 2025 tour is celebrating the release of his
critically acclaimed album Open House, which has been
described by Jazzwise as a ‘combination of fearsome musical chops,
sophisticated compositional sensibility and unashamedly tuneful and upbeat
musical personality which is very hard to resist’.

Joining Tom are two of the most in demand musicians on the
international jazz scene, drummer James Maddren and
bassist Conor Chaplin.

Tickets: £15

Charlotte Keeffe’s RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW Quartet is a breeding ground for
squelchy, sploshy, splashy music-making! 

Charlotte’s passionate approach to freely improvising music
has been described as ‘avant garde for all!’ by Jazzwise.
 
Keeffe is inspired by abstract paintings and describes her trumpet and
flugelhorn as sound brushes. She will be joined by her bandmates Ashely John
Long on double bass, Ben Handysides on drums and Moss Freed on guitar.

We have a laid-back attitude at Late Night Jazz at the Royal
Albert Hall – customers are welcome to dance, move around, sing along, and
enjoy themselves in whatever way feels most comfortable!

Tickets: £2 – 12

A very special evening from the award-winning sister duo as
they perform songs from their critically acclaimed album Arabesque –
a celebration and tribute to music from the Arab world.

Scottish/Egyptian sisters Sarah and Laura Ayoub present

classical string traditions with world music infused with Arabic and Celtic
influence, the sisters are internationally recognised for uniting diverse
musical genres and cultures through their unique compositional style.

Fast becoming the sound and faces of a truly exciting new
generation of classical and crossover artists, the duo have performed across
the UK, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, with highlights including
appearances at the Royal Albert Hall, London Palladium, The Cairo Opera House,
and Dubai Opera.
