The renowned Purcell School for Young Musicians teams up with acclaimed UK vocalist Vanessa Haynes for a special concert of Soul classics and original songs. Cutting her teeth as backing vocalist for artists such as Van Morrison and Chaka Khan, Haynes became front woman of legendary jazz funk outfit, Incognito, in 2008, touring with the band for over 14 years. The Purcell School is a leading training ground for gifted young musicians, with many notable alumni figures including Jacob Collier, Jas Kayser (Lenny Kravitz) and Seth Tackaberry (Corey Wong). Tonight’s concert features students from the Commercial and Popular Music Department, curated by Jazz and Pop saxophonist Simon Allen and assisted by a faculty of the UK’s top Touring, West End and Session musicians. Come and watch the stars of tomorrow, today!
