DALES JAM
Dales Jam was formed in 2003 by a group of people of all ages and musical abilities, who wanted a time and a place to meet up and play music. Since then, under the guidance of a professional music director, Richard Ormrod, Dales Jam has grown steadily in members. Members meet weekly for a workshop and play at gigs ranging from festivals to concert halls.
Dales Jam started out primarily as a jazz based group, and much of what they play is still rooted there, but it's world music based with African rhythms, Klezmer, Cuban, and an occasional veer off into Stevie Wonder arrangements, before taking a trip to Japan! Much of the music is arrangemd by Richard, but members also contribute their own pieces or arrangements.
