Info
A double bill show from the Andy Sheppard Trio and Norma Winstone and Kit Downes at Cadogan Hall.
The Andy Sheppard Trio marks an encounter between saxophonist Andy Sheppard, Italian jazz pianist Rita Marcotulli, and French bassist Michel Benita.
Three individual musicians, each of whom has played a role in shaping what we now recognise as the sound of European jazz.
In this trio, Sheppard has the opportunity to develop an entire programme of new compositions, taking a spirited and fresh approach to his writing for the project, honouring jazz tradition while allowing space for interpretation through the voices within the trio.
Vocalist and lyricist Norma Winstone became a notable figure on the British jazz scene during the sixties when she shared the bill at Ronnie Scott’s with Roland Kirk. Since, she has regularly collaborated with the likes of Steve Swallow, Kenny Wheeler, and Dave Holland, and became known for evolving her own wordless approach to improvisation.
Together with pianist Kit Downes, Norma will bring her poetic sensibilities to new pieces by Downes as well as compositions by Carla Bley, Ralph Towner, and John Taylor, alongside perspectives on two traditional tunes, Black Is The Colour and Rowing Home.
