Two
highly inventive trios feature in this concert,
led by creative figures from the British
contemporary jazz scene. Neil Yates’
innovative Celtic-jazz fusions take another
step forward when the English trumpeter,
based in Wales, brings together the Romanian,
Hungarian-based guitarist and the Irish
percussionist based in England to explore
the folk traditions of each of those countries.
Using live loop effects, the trio creates
rich textures of improvised grooves, traditional
melodies and fluid, lyrical soloing. And
there is Curios. Tom Cawley’s playing
is influenced by both the Romantic classical
tradition as well as more recent developments
in rock and electronica fields. The compositions
show a high degree of melodic and harmonic
invention and dynamic awareness, and give
the band a warm, intriguing, interactive
chamber-jazz sound.

To
open the evening, one of the UK’s
most dazzling keyboard players gives a solo
recital of material from his recent solo
CD. A member of the F-ire Collective, Robert’s
playing embraces such a wide variety of
influences: nu-jazz, soul, romantic classical,
free jazz. His technique is breathtaking,
and his harmonic and rhythmic ideas are
articulate, full of surprising deviations
and come at you thick and fast! Polo Ortí
was born in Valencia in 1963, and he is
now considered to be one of the most talented
and original composers, orchestrators and
pianists on the Spanish scene. His musical
achievements and sensibility have earned
him numerous prizes and wide recognition.
Having worked with Gary Burton, Lyle Mays,
Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner and Pat Metheny,
he brings his own quintet to Manchester
for the first time to preview new compositions.
A special member of the band is fellow Chicharrero
and soulful, enigmatic saxophonist Fermin
Rivero, resident and widely active in Manchester
for many years in the late ‘80s and
early ‘90s. The band’s sound
and material is rooted in the contemporary
jazz-fusion idiom, but with a deep harmonic
awareness and an almost vocal lyricism.
