Andy Sheppard Quartets

The Haymarket

A double bill show from the Andy Sheppard Trio and Normal Winstone & Kit Downes.

The Andy Sheppard Trio marks an unprecedented encounter between master saxophonist Andy Sheppard, Italian jazz icon pianist Rita Marcotulli, and one of the most prominent bassists on the European circuit, French bassist Michel Benita. Three highly individual musicians, each of whom has played a significant role in shaping what we now recognise as the sound of European jazz.

In this new trio, Sheppard has the opportunity to develop an entire programme of new compositions, taking a spirited and fresh approach to his writing for the project – honouring jazz tradition while allowing space for interpretation through the unique voices within the trio. Collectively exploring the possibilities of improvisation and interplay, the music is anchored in structure yet open to lyricism, free to discover new paths and evolve in different directions as it unfolds.
