Sat 14 Oct
5pm - J to Z
Kevin Le Gendre with highlights of a concert from March in Cologne, with American drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and rising star vocalist Melanie Charles performing as special guests with German jazz orchestra the WDR Big Band conducted by Chuck Owen. And sharing her musical inspirations is guest Candice Hoyes, vocalist and co-founder of US-based women-led trio Nite Bjuti.
12midnight - Freeness
Corey Mwamba presents free jazz and improvised interactions with a variety of environments, from a conversation between voice and wind to the sound of seeds popping in the heat of Wanstead Flats, London. Plus a sound poem by duo Blanc Sceol - the project of Hannah White and Stephen Shell - and Japanese-American saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi with a long solo improvisation previewing his album I Was Too Young to Hear Silence. And there's new material from Estonian-Latvian vocalist eleOnora (Eleonora Kampe).
(I think it probably means Wanstead Flats - the common in NE London, not a block of flats in Wanstead!)
Sun 15 Oct
4pm - Jazz Record Requests
Also, Belize-born British residing Errollyn Wallen, who has been influenced by jazz among other things, and has worked with the Westbrooks, is featured Composer of the Week next week. I will link to her on the COTW bored (unless someone else gets there first!).
