Butetown celebrates jazz heritage

Jazz musicians will be joining forces to recreate the spirit of Tiger Bay's heyday in Cardiff this Sunday 3 May.

Rare recordings by jazz guitarist Vic Parker will be unveiled at Butetown Bay Jazz in the Wales Millennium Centre.

The sessions at the long-gone Quebec pub were secretly recorded by a Dutch sea captain in January 1976 and will be handed to local historians.

The event also includes a host of local performers, workshops and exhibitions as part of a full day of celebrations.

Featured artists include singer Li Harding, the Byron Jones Big Band, and a specially formed jazz choir made up of Butetown children.
