John Dankworth and Cleo Laine

In a career that spans more than 40 years as a composer, performer and conductor, John Dankworth combines confidence and virtuosity with eclecticism and unpredictability to continually cross musical boundaries. It is unlikely that there is a British musician better known for a wider range of musical activities than Dankworth.

From her modest beginnings as a singer in English dance halls, Cleo Laine has gone on to achieve international fame by continually expanding her talents in a career that spans some four decades. She is one of the most celebrated singers of our time. Cleo commands a dazzling array of vocal styles and is the only singer ever to receive Grammy® nominations in the Female Jazz, Popular, and Classical categories.
