Melbourne jazz identiity, acclaimed pianist Steve Sedergreen, returns to Darwin's CDU Theatre for a great night of music once again.
A commanding presence in Australian jazz for decades, Steve is a musician whose playing can ignite a room with hard-swinging energy, then pivot without warning into something intimate, spacious and luminous. Sedergreen is known for performances that feel both deeply grounded in tradition and unmistakably alive in the moment.
Special guest is ex-Darwin (now Sydney-based) the inimitable James Ryan - saxophone & flute.
This is sure to be a thrilling night of jazz of original work by both Steve and James. Expect the unexpected!

“Steve brings to every performance a spirit of inclusiveness and his focus has always been on the collective endeavour…his passion for jazz as an artform that unites, engages and entertains…”
