The duo format is one the most challenging and rewarding for jazz musicians. It is a very intimate ‘dialogue’ that requires moment-by-moment awareness, sensitivity and responsiveness from both players in equal measure. A shared emotional landscape is essential in creating, shaping and sustaining the different character of each piece and, bearing in mind their 40-year age difference, James and Bradley ‘commune’ with the music completely. At the heart of this communication is the love of the repertoire that has been handed down from the giants of jazz improvisation.
James and Bradley present a programme of music by some of the most influential players and composers of the last hundred years – taking you on a musical journey which moves from early jazz and blues, through swing and bebop, to cool and contemporary. As composers themselves, the programme will also feature compositions by both James and Bradley.
