French Festivals with Didier Levallet and forthcoming CDs with Allison Neale and Loz Speyer


Allison Neale

Allison Neale

TWO OF A MIND with alto saxophonist Allison Neale and Chris on baritone sax is based on the freewheeling, wonderfully melodic interpretations of standard material recorded 50 years ago by Gerry Mulligan and Paul Desmond on Blues in Time and Two of a Mind.

The quartet was recently in the studio for its first recording, joined on some tracks by guitarist Colin Oxley, and includes new original pieces by Chris and Allison. Release date tbc but expect it in the spring on Trio records.

In DISORDER AT THE BORDER Chris revives his long-standing partnership with cellist Ben Davis. Three generations of musicians from three London jazz collectives - Chaos, Way Out West and F-IRE collectives - play music crossing the jazz spectrum created by everyone in the band.  Comparative newcomers Elliot Galvin, Tom McCredie and Corrie Dick are swiftly gaining recognition as some of the most creative musicians on the British and European scene.
See the diary for more on a Disorderly special on March 4th – guests Laura Jurd and Liam Noble.

Loz Speyer's band Inner Space Music toured England in autumn 2015, followed by a recording due for release later this year.
