Programme:

Can't Buy Me Love, Hey Jude, Get Back, Let It Be, Michelle, Yesterday, Come Together.

Join us for an unforgettable journey straight to Liverpool as we present a cross-section of iconic songs composed by the legendary Beatles. You’ll enjoy timeless classics such as Can’t Buy Me Love, Hey Jude, Get Back, Let It Be, Michelle, Yesterday, Come Together, and many more hits you know and love. This concert promotes the “Jazz Side of Abbey Road” album.

The Beatles revolutionized pop and rock music in the early 1960s by composing and performing their own songs instead of relying on professional songwriters and session musicians. Despite their brief time in the spotlight—peaking before their disbandment in 1970—John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr ushered in a new era of music. The Beatles have inspired countless jazz musicians, and this concert is dedicated to their legendary works. Songs from various albums will be presented in a completely different, unique, and sometimes unexpected perspective through jazz interpretations. 

Performing for you will be the Imienowski Jazz Set, featuring:
