The Orquestra de Jazz do Algarve
founded and directed by Hugo Alves, continues to be very active and December will be no exception.

On 1 and 3 December, British singer Tom Fitzpatrick joins the Algarve big band to pay tribute to Frank Sinatra. It's an opportunity to hear some of the most emblematic themes from his repertoire, with original orchestrations for jazz orchestra. On the 1st the concert takes place at 7pm at the Lagos Cultural Centre and on the 3rd at 5pm in the Auditorium of the Cachopo Social Complex, Tavira.

Singer Paula Oliveira (pictured) will also be the Orchestra's guest on 16 December at the Lagoa Municipal Auditorium (7pm) and the following day (6pm) at Praça Al-Mutamid in Silves. Paula Oliveira is an essential voice in Portuguese jazz, with an enviable career in Portugal and beyond. "After You've Gone" is the theme of these concerts (which follow on from previous collaborative moments), where timeless standards and other sounds from the 1980s will be heard. The Christmas season will not be forgotten, with the interpretation of some themes that are inescapable at this time of year.

The OJA quartet will also be performing with singer Sara Badalo at a concert in Tavira on 21 December at 3pm in the Old Municipal Market.
