opening new doors to the arts

Music lovers in East Yorkshire are being treated to a live jazz performance this autumn as part of ArtERY Live’s autumn season of events.
Musicians, Alan Barnes and David Newton have been playing duets for 40 years. These multiple award winners cover a vast repertoire from Louis Armstrong to Chick Corea and play with an empathy that can only come with long experience.
