CHOPIN JAZZ – Stephen Ellery Project

in The Jazz Club

Stephen Ellery is a multi-instrumentalist and orchestral conductor. He has conducted orchestras in Europe, Asia and Latin America. His attachment to Polish Music and Poles saw him conducting a 65 piece London Gala Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall in 2018 at the “STO LAT” Concert celebrating 100 years of Poland’s return to Independence. For a moment during this concert he switched to play solo saxophone in the middle of Edyta Górniak’s performance. Stephen has worked extensively with orchestras and singers from Poland and in London he has organised and conducted productions of many operas by Stanisław Moniuszko. As a saxophone player he has performed at music festivals and played on recordings. In 1989 he happened to be in Berlin and as the Wall was being torn down he climbed up upon it and played his sax – an image captured by many photographers.
