Dan Mar-Molinero returns to the club with his 17-piece jazz orchestra, crammed full of top jazz musicians from in and around Southampton.
The programme features music composed for and funded by the Aqueous Territory Research Network project; inspired by concepts and themes around the extremes of water and how communities live and respond to it, with a focus on estuarine communities including New Orleans, Exeter and Southampton.
Expect expansive chordal textures, powerful melodies, and deep grooves alongside some great swing, and even some second-line, NOLA-style!
With thanks to, the Arts & Humanities Research Council, the Aqueous Territories Conference Participants in New Orleans and Exeter – especially Camille Mathieu.
