Glasper is a pianist, record producer, and composer known for blending jazz improvisation with elements of hip-hop, R&B, and electronic music.

He has received multiple Grammy Awards, recognizing his innovative approach to musical fusion.

The Crystal Palace Bowl is an outdoor concert venue located within Crystal Palace Park in South London. Originally constructed in 1961 as an upgrade to a previous concrete shell built in the 1930s, it has hosted a wide range of performances over the decades – from popular music concerts by artists like Pink Floyd and Bob Dylan to orchestral performances and community events. The original structure suffered significant damage from a fire in 2022 and underwent a substantial £4.2 million restoration project completed in 2024, aiming to enhance its acoustics and accessibility while retaining its iconic mid-century modern design.
