Piano 'Relay' Concert

For the 大象传媒's piano season, Jez Nelson presents a special performance featuring six of the UK's leading jazz and improvising pianists playing two pianos - occasionally all at once.

As part of 'Piano Season on the 大象传媒', Jez Nelson presents a unique performance featuring six of the UK's leading jazz and improvising pianists playing two pianos - occasionally all at once. Matthew Bourne, Kit Downes, Alcyona Mick, Robert Mitchell, Liam Noble and Pat Thomas will begin the concert in duos, before coming together in an extended improvised relay, passing the music between them and sharing the stool in spontaneous, and at times random, combinations.

Presenter: Jez Nelson
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Chris Elcombe.
