DESCRIPTION:A double bill highlighting the close links between the new jazz scenes in London and Paris\n\n\n\nALEX BONNEY QUARTET (with special guest George Crowley on tenor sax and clarinet)\n\n\n\n\nAlex Bonney’s quartet play original compositions with plenty of space for collective improvising with a nod to the American and European legends of free jazz. The band members are some of London’s most in demand improvisers. They have recently released an album entitled ‘Halda Ema’ on Loop records.\n\n'It is so rare now to hear music of this fine transparency and that brave daring so gently expressed that points you Cherrywards\, back to the birth of free jazz even if by no means is this a tribute band\, and more importantly forward to unnavigated jazz futures that Cherry ever the pioneer was always about….Bonney is fast becoming one of the more involving avant trumpeters of his generation’  - Marlbank\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlex Bonney - cornet\, compositions\nJames Allsopp - bass clarinet\nOlie Brice - bass\nJeff Williams - drums\nGeorge Crowley - tenor sax and clarinet\n\n\n"Both Bonney\, with his sparing but telling use of vibrato and vocalised tones\, and Fincker\, whose controlled fervour seems more impressive with each successive Vortex appearance\, set a sensible course between the Scylla of outright re-creation of the Ayler brothers' sound and the Charybdis of using their material merely as a springboard for frolics of their own; An unexpected treat." \n\n\n\n\nHalda Ema by Alex Bonney Quartet\n\nUNKLAR\nNicholas Stephan is a saxophonist based in Paris has been collaborating with London’s Loop Collective for over 10 years with projects such as ‘Le Bruit Du Sign’ and 'Woland Athletic Club'\n\nHis new project ‘Unklar’ (the name refers to a way of reading between the musical lines) features renown musicians from the Paris jazz scene.\n\nNicolas Stephan -  Tenor saxophone and compositions\nFanny Ménégoz  - Flûtes\nAntonin Rayon  Hammon B3 and bass Keyboard\nBenoit Joblot -  Drums\n\nThe band explore a dark and luminous sound world\, somewhere between whisper and a scream.\nNicolas Stephan’s work is influenced by Henry Threadgill\, Kris Davis and Ellery Eskelin.\n\nThe band launched its first album in 2017 on the Discobole records label.\n\nhttps://www.sophieaime.com/#block3
