About the show

Composer and bandleader Sam Eastmond has the singular honour of being the only British artist selected by Zorn to give this body of work new life. For almost three decades, John Zorn’s epic Masada project has redefined the concept of Radical Jewish music – aiming to create a new style of music by blending Jewish musical traditions with other genres like free jazz.

Featuring

National Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO) appearing at this event

National Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO)

NYJO is world-famous as a glittering showcase for the UK’s best young jazz musicians. Under the direction of Mark Armstrong, the orchestra deftly mixes established classics from the big band repertoire, new work by composers at the leading-edge of the art-form and special arrangements by band members. From a hard-swinging rhythm section to a raft of hugely talented young soloists, this is a band in fine form. “Don’t believe the hype: if you seriously want to hear the best of what’s to come, check out the many NYJO projects… The National Youth Jazz Orchestra [is] a vibrant, diverse collective of bands that give voice to all that’s different, young and exciting in Brit jazz.” Jazzwise Magazine, Who to Look Out For in 2016.
