SUMMARY:Julian Siegel Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7:45 PM\, Music 8:30 PM\, 2 sets of music\n \nLine-up:\nJulian Siegel - Tenor saxophone\, Soprano saxophone\, Bass clarinet\n\nLiam Noble - Piano\n\nGene Calderazzo - Drums\n\nSpecial Guest Dave Whitford - Double bass\n\n \nAbout\nWith the Julian Siegel Quartet\, the BBC Jazz Award winning saxophonist and composer Julian Siegel can be heard alongside some of this generation’s most distinctive voices\, creating an in-demand Quartet on the UK and European Jazz scene. The band features inspirational pianist Liam Noble\, his fluid touch and dazzling imagination perfectly complementing Siegel’s music and playing\, and providing a perfect foil for the many directions the music can turn. With the creative spark of dynamic drummer Gene Calderazzo\, heard tonight alongside the deep groove of special guest bassist Dave Whitford dove-tailing perfectly with Siegel and Noble\, this is unquestionably one of the UK’s most exciting and powerful quartets.\n\nFollowing up from their London Jazz Award winning album Urban Theme Park (Basho Music)\, 2018 saw the release of VISTA\, the second album of the Julian Siegel Quartet and the first on the Whirlwind Recordings label. The album features ten of Julian’s compositions plus an arrangement of Bud Powell's ‘Un Poco Loco’. This acoustic set of music moves freely through varied sound worlds and colours\, from undercurrents of bop to searching ballads and joyful melodies.\nSince the release of VISTA\, the band has performed internationally at Jazz Festivals including INNtöne Jazz Festival in Austria\, Made in The UK at the Rochester International Jazz Festival\, the Jazz Standard NYC\, JazzFestival Goettingen in Germany\, Limerick Jazz Festival Ireland\, UK’s Love Supreme Festival 2019\, Bristol International Jazz and Blues Festival\, Manchester International Jazz Festival and many other UK shows included in an extensive 2018 – 2019 Arts Council England UK Tour. The Quartet was featured on the cover of UK’s Jazzwise Magazine in February 2018 and VISTA was\nincluded in Jazzwise’s Top 20 Jazz Albums of the year.\n\n“Expressive direct music.... tightly wound post-bop\, pensive improv. and more.”\nJohn Fordham\, The Guardian ★ ★ ★ ★ Jazz Album of the Month\, February 2018\n\n“A great quartet with an enthralling agility.” ★ ★ ★ ★ In Music\n\n”Exciting\, dynamic music with improvisation at its centre.”- London Jazz News\n \n[embed]https://youtu.be/itDj5UqQtMk[/embed]
