Three senior students lead their bands in consecutive sets of contemporary jazz. It’s the perfect way to look in on what the next generation of jazz musicians are inspired by.
James Osborne Jackson "Duo"
James Osborne Jackson piano, violin and Nyckēlhårpä
Ollie Talbot drums
James says: "Our plan is to perform an extended open improvisation off the back of our explorations over the last few months of various different types of folk dances - playing a lot with getting the drum kit into these contexts etc. As well as piano I'll be doubling on violin and Nyckēlhårpä."

Rufus Reader drums
Harvey says: "We are playing a selection of standards arranged for trio, which will include..."
