Philip Clouts Quartet

We are pleased to announce the return of the Philip Clouts Quartet, who last
performed at Shrewsbury in 2011 in a performance that simply oozed high
quality Jazz. When pianist Philip Clouts began his collaboration with F-IRE
collective saxophonist Carlos Lopez-Real in 2008 sparks flew and a formidable new unit was born.

The quartet perform melodic contemporary jazz pieces that have been written inspired by the sights and sounds of the Sennen Cove area while staying true to his own musical roots in African and Latin music. Their music has already attracted airplay on BBC Radio 3, Jazz FM, UK Jazz Radio and Radio Bremen.

The evening will feature Shrewsbury School students performing a piece that
they have worked on during an afternoon workshop with Carol Lopez-Real.
