Composed and performed by Guildhall alumnus Sean Noonan – known for his “rhythmic storytelling” and hailed by Modern Drummer for his artistic independence – this world premiere performance of The Drummer of Tedworth is a collision of musical forms, inspired lunacy and fearless orchestration.

The Drummer of Tedworth: A Concerto for Speaking Drummer by Sean Noonan

Two jazz powerhouses unite for a boundary-pushing night of big band brilliance. The National Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO) and Sam Eastmond bring Zorn’s Masada to life with punk energy, while Finn Genockey leads the London Intercollegiate Jazz Orchestra through an exhilarating set of original works.
