Barry Green, a wonderfully inventive pianist with a fluent, melodic style, whose previous New York Trio gig at the Crucible Playhouse was a great success, returns to Sheffield with a new band.
Barry’s quartet features legendary bassist Dave Green who, in a career spanning over six decades, has performed and recorded with numerous groups in all styles of jazz. Completing the line-up are two young rising-stars: saxophonist Maddy Coombs and vocalist Aitzi Cofre Real – both graduates of the Guildhall School of Music who are building reputations on the thriving London jazz scene and beyond.
Presented by Sheffield Jazz.
