\nFrom April 30th to May 2nd this year, the Cheltenham Jazz Music Festival will be held in various locations that will feature the top jazz artists of this generation. Jamie Cullum<\/a><\/strong> will be performing at the Big Top on April 30 as a returning artist. Jamie is one of the many big names in jazz that started at The Fringe \u2013 a place where small bands are given a chance to showcase their talents and for visitors who don\u2019t have tickets to all the main shows of the festival. The event grows every year and we can only expect jazz to grow with it.<\/p>\n
\nThe Cheltenham music festival is from July 2 to July 6 this year and will feature classical music. The Town Main Hall will echo the sounds of the John Wilson Orchestra<\/a><\/strong>, playing old Sinatra classics with Mathew Ford as their guest singer. The festival will also feature the beautiful and talented violin virtuoso, Nicola Benedetti. Apart from her great musical talent, this young artist is also one of Sistema Scotland\u2019s musical \u201cBig Sister\u201d for the Big Noise project that encourages young people to take up music in order to have a cultural identity. In an interview with the Telegraph<\/a><\/strong>, she says the aimlessness of children today is what makes them susceptible to celebrity culture and the obsessive chasing to become famous.
