Jonny Mansfield / Alex Hitchcock
A vibraphonist/drummer/composer & leader Jonny Mansfield already includes the prestigious 2018 Kenny Wheeler Jazz Prize amongst a number of impressive accolades. Alex Hitchcock's fluent, melodic and creative sax style has made a significant impression on the UK jazz scene with performances at the likes of Love Supreme, the Barbican and Royal Albert Hall. This is the first time these two phenomenal talents will be appearing together, so expect sparks to fly! The music will be a combination of original compositions and jazz standards and completing the quartet will be Conor Chaplin-bass and Marc Michel-drums.
"Hitchcock…a sax virtuoso" Jazzwise; “Mansfield… warm, vibrant, intelligent music that is rich in terms of colour, texture and nuance” The JazzMann
