Performance NotesSpend a lazy weekend listening to music by exceptional musicians from the London jazz scene and renowned world music artists at a delicious Live Music Brunch.

Live Music Brunch takes place in Verdi – Italian Kitchen at the Royal Albert Hall, which offers casual dining and great music within one of London’s most iconic settings. Your ticket includes a welcome drink, main course and dessert, served with tea or coffee, all accompanied by great live music.

The Hidden Notes offers a window into a unique sound world. It is a celebration of the saxophone and all the beautiful colours that are hidden just beneath the surface. Through the use of special fingerings and blowing techniques it is possible to produce several notes simultaneously extending the sound world of the saxophone from a monophonic to a Polyphonic instrument. Ethereal, delicate two-note whispers, rich full chords, earthy split-notes, drones and powerful metallic dissonance. Circular breathing then allows for the development of complex continuous rhythmic patterns. All of this combined with the natural sound of the saxophone creates a rich and varied soundscape, opening up many new exciting rhythmic and textural possibilities.
