Michael Janisch: Purpose Built

Michael Janisch, double bass
Paul Booth, saxophone
Jay Phelps, trumpet
Jim Hart, vibes
Andrew Bain, drums

Michael Janisch is a magnificent US bassist who, since settling in London, has made a massive impact on the English and Scottish jazz scenes. His special presentations at Pizza Express have made a particular impact. If Purpose Built, an Anglo/US project, had not been released so late in 2009 it would almost certainly have made several ‘best of’ lists. Accessible, yet fiercely contemporary, this particular quintet will both challenge and delight.

Pete Churchill conducts the London Vocal Jazz Project

The London Vocal Jazz Project Choir
Nikki Iles, piano
Steve Watts, double bass
James Maddren, drums
Pete Churchill, conductor

In a career that has encompassed so much – pianist, singer, composer, arranger, educator - this must be one of Pete Churchill’s finest achievements. This 24-strong choir was on stage at Cleo Laine and John Dankworth’s last-ever concert together, as well as Bobby McFerrin at the Barbican earlier in the year. To say that they ‘knocked the audience out’ is an understatement, and to have them at Lauderdale House promises to be one of our most thrilling evenings ever. With material by the cream of British writers - Kenny Wheeler, John Warren, Stan Sulzmann and others, and probably something a little more seasonal as well, this one-off event is not to be missed.

Marios Papadopoulos, piano

Chopin:
Barcarolle in F sharp major, Op. 60
Nocturne in C sharp minor, Op. post
Ballade No. 3 in A flat major, Op. 47
Mazurka A minor, Op. 68 No. 2
Scherzo No. 2 in B flat minor, Op. 31

Marios Papadopoulos, a leading pianist of his generation, performs a solo recital to celebrate Chopin’s bicentenary. The programme features some of Chopin’s most popular works alongside a selection of his lesser-heard masterpieces. The evening will conclude with the composer’s epic Third Sonata, one of his most substantial compositions in any genre.
