Gerald Clayton

Two of jazz's most celebrated voices come together for an extraordinary evening at London's iconic Union Chapel. Gerald Clayton, the Grammy-nominated pianist and composer celebrated for his lyrical depth and harmonic sophistication, joins guitar legend John Scofield in a meeting of musical minds that promises to be nothing short of revelatory. Set within the stunning Victorian Gothic architecture of Union Chapel in Islington, this August 2026 performance offers an atmosphere as breathtaking as the music itself — candlelit arches framing world-class improvisation in one of London's most beloved intimate concert spaces. John Scofield's reputation as one of the most versatile and inventive guitarists in jazz history needs little introduction — from his early days with Miles Davis to decades of boundary-pushing recordings, his playing carries a distinctly earthy, blues-soaked eloquence. Alongside him, Gerald Clayton brings a pianist's sensitivity and a composer's vision, weaving rich harmonic textures that elevate every musical conversation. Together, they have also performed at Neumunster and Musikhuset Aarhus, building a remarkable musical dialogue that reaches its UK culmination at Union Chapel. Whether you are a lifelong jazz devotee or simply someone who appreciates extraordinary musicianship in an unmatched setting, this is an evening to savour. The Union Chapel's natural acoustics and intimate capacity mean every note resonates with rare clarity and warmth. Arrive early, settle in, and prepare to witness two jazz masters at the height of their powers.
