Listen to new music from leading jazz artists. Featuring composer and trumpeter Laura Jurd 鈥� a 大象传媒 New Generation Artist 鈥� this concert melds jazz sounds with rich orchestral music.
Formerly known as the Laura Jurd Quartet, a new band awakens from the jaws of extinction. They are Dinosaur and they join the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra tonight to give you an evening of fiery sonic experimentation and abstraction. 大象传媒 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Laura Jurd has a passion for 鈥渕aking things up鈥� and today's concert opens with her new work for orchestra & Dinosaur, combining influences from both classical and jazz music. We also hear a new work by Norwegian Tuba player Daniel Herskedal who defies the conventions of his instrument. He pushes the boundaries both technically and sonically creating spellbinding and mesmerising sounds.
