About this event
Doors 7:45 PM, Music 8:30 PM - 2 sets of music Line-up: Mike Chillingworth - Alto Saxophone Tom Farmer - Double bass Josh Morrison - Drums About Tonight, we will honour Richard Turner, the brilliant trumpeter, composer, pillar of the London Jazz community. Though Richard tragically passed away in August 2011 at just 27 years old, his legacy endures. As we approach the 15th anniversary of his passing, the remaining members of his quartet, Round Trip, return to the stage. Alongside special guest artists, they will perform the entirety of the band's self-titled debut album - Richard’s sole recorded work as a bandleader. This tribute concert also celebrates the album’s long-awaited debut on digital streaming platforms. For the concert, all tickets will be donated to Mind (registered charity number 219830).
