Big Ideas presents large ensemble jazz, improvised, & experimental music performed by a rotating lineup of musicians based across the North of England.The award-winning Tom Sharp Jazz Orchestra began life over a decade ago as a rehearsal band, and is now one of the most respected big bands in the north of England. Following the release of their album 'Daybreak Express' earlier this year, the band are excited to premiere their most recent project, an exploration of the great Charles Mingus record 'Let My Children Hear Music'. With an enlarged line-up, and after some tireless transcription from saxophone queen Anna Chandler-King, the band are excited to share nigh on a year's worth of work unpicking this dense work.
Reeds: James Boyes (alto sax, soprano sax, flute, clarinet), Laurence Mason (alto sax, soprano sax, baritone sax, contrabass clarinet), Sophie Speed (tenor sax, flute), Nadim Teimoori (tenor sax, flute, clarinet), Anna Chandler-King (baritone sax, soprano sax), Howard Jacobs (contrabass clarinet)
