Join the Will Barnes Quartet for the second leg of their ‘Source of the Severn’ tour this Autumn and Winter, presenting songs from their acclaimed album, which is an exploration of the rugged landscape of Mid Wales and the Marches. They will be joined by skilled landscape artist Erin Hughes, providing a captivating live visual show to accompany the quartet’s performance, igniting the imagination of the audience, and making this a performance not to be missed.
Will Barnes (guitar) is joined by James Batten (drums), Jack Gonsalez (piano) and Clovis Phillips (bass) – a tight collective of highly experienced jazz instrumentalists from rural Wales. Expect music that reflects the rural isolation of their home with roots that penetrate bebop, post-bop and contemporary jazz. Original compositions are punctuated by inventive reworkings of pop, rock and jazz standards for an eclectic evening of improvised music.
As well as the immersive live visuals, Erin has created nine original pieces in response to the music utilising her meticulously hand-marbled papers as her artistic palette to skilfully craft collages that emulate the traditional artistry of Pietre Dure.
Opening for the Will Barnes Quartet are Cumbria gypsy jazz group Caravanouche – check out a live video below for a sample of their infectious sound.
This performance features our Steinway grand piano, and is not one to miss for anyone with an interest in jazz, instrumental and improvised music.
