Performance Notes | Conceived in Calcutta, bred in Bolton, matured in Manchester and living in London, clarinettist Arun Ghosh brings this rich geographical heritage to his music. His band have had quite a year, performing music from his acclaimed debut "Northern Namaste" and forthcoming release "Primal Odyssey". They have been playing both nationally (Ronnie Scott's, Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, at the Southbank and Glasgow Jazz Festival) and internationally (at Jazz Sous les Pommiers in Normandy, Elbjazz in Hamburg and jazzahead in Bremen), taking the European festival scene by storm.
This performance is a rare opportunity to hear this intensely passionate performer's Indo-Jazz sound in an intimate jazz trio format, his joyous and lyrical lines soaring over dazzling drums and earthy cyclical bass grooves. |
