Glaser/Copus/Barford/Martin Septet
Vortex Jazz ClubN16Fri 14 Aug19:45
£17.50Doors 7:45 PM, Music 8:30 PM - 2 sets of music Line-up: Sam Glaser - Alto saxophone James Copus - Trumpet Tom Barford - Tenor Saxophone Olli Martin - trombone Will Barry - Piano Will Sach - Double bass Will Cleasby - Drum kit About: This collaborative septet features a stunning line-up of leading musicians on the UK jazz scene who come together in this format for the first time to celebrate seminal septet recordings from the classic jazz canon. You can expect to hear arrangements and transcriptions of compositions by Joe Henderson, Art Farmer, Thelonious Monk, Wynton Marsalis, and many more, with these incredible musicians putting their own stamp on the music, drawing from influences far and wide. Sam Glaser, James Copus, Tom Barford and Olli Martin have known each other as friends and musical colleagues for over 15 years. Having studied together at the Royal Academy of Music, and having been house-mates for several years, this collaboration is long overdue. Each have pursued their own path musically and received recognition for their playing, and with the four of them at the front of this septet, you can expect a high-octane performance. They are joined by a tour-de-force rhythm section, comprising Will Barry, Will Sach, and Will Cleasby. These musicians, each renowned individually for virtuosic playing and limitless creativity, often come together to form one of the notorious rhythm sections in the UK. Between them, they have toured internationally with the likes of Wynton Marsalis, Jerry Bergonzi, Joe Farnsworth, Eddie Henderson, and Kurt Elling.
