Local News
The Barnet Eye blog has been promoting the idea of large map murel on the wall of Mill Hill Broadway Bus Station, detailing points of local interest. Click here for more details. We think this is a fantastic idea and the Mill Hill Historical Society also agree, suggesting that it may be a great way to commemorate the opening of Mill Hill Broadway Railway Station ione hundred and fifty years ago
It's the 150th anniversary of the opening of the station in July this year so a mural would be perfect!— Mill Hill Hist Soc (@MHHistSoc) March 3, 2018

Dorian Ford
Once again Dorian shows his class...
Dorian Ford started playing jazz in his early teens when he began regular attendance at a weekly workshop led by trumpeter, composer, broadcaster and music writer Ian Carr.
Playing alongside many musicians who went on to form the backbone of the London jazz renaissance of the 1980's, he won a scholarship to Berklee College of Music where he received the prestigious Chick Corea Jazz Masters Award. Piano studies were with Donald Brown, a regular in Art Blakey's band at the time.
The new "Without Words" Trio features Dorian Ford - piano, Dominic Ashworth - guitar, Lydian B. Dhami - double bass and pays tribute to the great piano/guitar collaborations (Jamal/Crawford, Metheny/Mays, Evans/Hall, Peterson/Ellis, Pass and Kessel, Jarrett/Brown and Miller/Malone, Without Words play originals, standards, classics by the mordern greats and pop standards. They aim to communicate warmth of feeling, intimacy, lyricism and swing, and all without words - only music.
