Alex Steele is a tremendously fine jazz pianist with an innate love of harmony and rhythm. He’s also a multi-instrumentalist, professor of environmental science and lecturer on life & business improvements via his ‘Improwise’ company lectures. Alex is a huge fan of the music of the composer Burt Bacharach, so for this concert his trio will concentrate on that maestro’s famous compositions that made so many British and American singers stars throughout five decades, including Cilla Black, Karen Carpenter, Sasha Distel and Dione Warwick. In addition - we're delighted to advise that special guest vocalist Catherine Sykes will be joining the trio for some numbers!

Superlatives abound when people refer to jazz violinist Ben Holder. He is by far one of the most outstanding jazz entertainers the UK has to offer and with his virtuosic cross-fertilisation of classical, jazz and blues instrumental playing, he reaches the musical parts that many others fail to reach. This outstanding trio has performed together for nearly 10 years, so they know how to wring the very last drop of musicality from each bar of Ben’s arrangements. These tickets always sell fast - be sure to grab yours soon! Ben Holder (violin/vocals), Jez Cook (guitars) and Paul Jefferies (double bass).

Richard Exall is one of the UK’s foremost clarinetists and saxophonists. Regularly found in celebrated large and small ensembles including The Syd Lawrence Orchestra and the PRO (Pasadena Roof Orchestra), Richard has moved effortlessly from the world of classical orchestra to jazz and he is now recognised as one of the finest players on the scene. In this project, Richard sets out to introduce you to a truly iconic sax player - the mesmerising Stan Getz - who played a huge part in introducing the Bossa Nova movement to America and then the world in the 1960s. Remember the iconic hit Girl From Ipanema? That was Stan on sax with wife Astrud Gilberto. So expect some great Bossa Nova, swing aplenty and some hard hitting jazz of the most melodic kind. For this concert Richard will be on stage with Denny Ilett (guitar), Paul Jefferies (double bass) and Steve Vintner (drums/percussion)

Between them (Alan Barnes & David Newton) these two masters of the British jazz scene have won over 20 national music awards. They are the 'go-to' players for a many, many bands small and large - jazz, pop and rock and for two essential reasons: firstly they are both virtuosos on their own instruments and secondly their playing and presentation provides some of the finest entertainment on the jazz scene today. Having both studied (excelled) at the same time at Leeds College of Music, they went on to perform together in many ensembles (Stacey Kent, Bryan Ferry, Stan Tracey, Bruce Adams, Van Morrison etc etc….). We believe they are at their best when playing together in an intimate environment as a small band and so we have added a touch of double bass to their duo format (Paul Jefferies) to allow the creative musical story telling creativity to flow…….
