Brian Priestley, The Priestley Quintet

Brian Priestly, veteran of the London scene, has recently relocated to Ireland where he presents the weekly That's Jazz on Radio Kerry to an international audience, but his prolific work as an author, journalist, broadcaster and educator has not diminished his love of the piano.

Professor Frank Lyons, Director of Arts & Humanities Research Institute at Magee will open the evening with a rarely heard Q&A session with Brian on his life and works.
