Italian Jazz in Melbourne

Italian jazz is charmingly different. Its melodic interpretation of the jazz idiom gives it a smoother, more musical flow which makes it highly enjoyable. Italian Jazz in Melbourne showcases this less familiar but unique version of jazz to aficionados and new audiences alike. This year the event will take place in one of Melbourne's premier jazz event venues, the Bennetts Lane Jazz Club, located off Little Lonsdale Street between Exhibition and Russell Streets at the top end of the city. Thursday, November 20, 2008.
