Binker and Moses in session
Freewheeling UK jazz duo Binker and Moses in session, with music from their latest album, Feeding the Machine. Plus acclaimed pianist Helen Sung shares her inspirations.
Kevin Le Gendre presents a session from UK jazz heavyweights, Binker and Moses, comprising of drummer Moses Boyd and saxophonist Binker Golding. Over the past few years Binker and Moses have become frontrunners of the UK jazz community, winning awards such as the 2015 MOBO Award for Best Jazz Act, a Parliamentary Jazz Award, and two Jazz FM Awards as well as numerous individual accolades. In session for J to Z they perform music from their latest album, Feeding the Machine, which blends heavy grooves, soaring melodies and freewheeling improvisation.
Also in the programme, we hear from acclaimed American jazz pianist and composer Helen Sung. Initially classically trained, Helen found herself drawn to the world of jazz and has gone on to become a celebrated jazz pianist both nationally and abroad. She has worked with jazz greats such as Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Terri Lyne Carrington and Wynton Marsalis. Here, Helen shares some of her inspirations, including a McCoy Tyner classic she describes as "musical ecstasy".
