About
Saxophonist Trish Clowes brings together some of her favourite players on the London scene to present some new material and ideas. Expect big melodies and big grooves.
Saxophonist and composer Trish Clowes has been described as “an improviser to be reckoned with” (Downbeat Magazine) and “one of the most agile and original jugglers of improv and adventurous composition to have appeared in the UK in recent times” (The Guardian). Clowes is currently an Associate Artist at Wigmore Hall, and her recorded music can be found on Dave Douglas’s Greenleaf Music, Stoney Lane Records, & Basho Records. Notable career performances include the Barbican, Toronto Jazz Festival, Rochester International Jazz Festival (US), Royal Festival Hall, Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club, Wigmore Hall, Celtic Connections (with BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra), Women in (e)motion Festival (Germany), National Opera House (Ireland), Galway Jazz Festival, Cheltenham Jazz Festival, and Bray Jazz Festival, in a quintet with US trumpeter Dave Douglas. In November 2024, Clowes will be a guest with the NDR Big Band in Germany, performing a set of new compositions entitled ‘Radiant Resistance’.
