Sean
Hargreaves Trio + Garforth Jazz Rock Band
Sean Hargreaves piano, Andy Hamill bass, Tristan
Mailliot drums
Sean Hargreaves trio features some of the
UKs finest young musicians. The trio are contemporary
in terms of material, arrangement and production
and their music draws diverse influences from
Chopin to Mahler, from Oscar Peterson to Led
Zeppelin.
‘Hargreaves has a flair for unusual rhythmic
settings. Swing, reggae, waltz time, slow
ballad – he deploys them all with consummate
skill ’Dave Gelly,The Observer
The evening will begin with a set by Garforth
Jazz Rock Band, a group of young musicians
led by Dave Evans. Their set will include
an exciting new commission by Sean Hargreaves
who will lead workshop sessions with the band
throughout May and June.
‘Garforth Jazz Rock Band is an amazing
orchestra!’ Dennis Rollins
‘…The Sean Hargreaves trio is
one of the best trios in Europe now by virtue
of their incredible musical versatility and
swing’ Goran Engstrom,Smalands- Tidningen,
Sweden
‘…the scalding energy of his
playing is anything but respectfully studious.You
’ll definitely be hearing from him.’
