Another glorious concert at St John’s Leytonstone on the evening of Friday 24th October, this time featuring exceptional musician Felipe Gordillo (below) playing a gorgeous repertoire of Mexican Jazz.
Halfway through the concert, Felipe wanted to explain to the audience the story behind some of the music being played to us.
He started speaking in Spanish, but I noticed that no one was translating and the audience did not understand what he was saying to them.
I therefore tentatively offered to translate his Spanish into English to the audience, which he welcomed, and so I – very randomly – ended up participating in the concert!
Thank you so much again to brilliant local conductor and musician, Stephen Ellery (above), for organising yet another musical treat for the local community.
