Cosmic expansions

Corey Mwamba sets sail on a new adventure in the cosmos of improvised music, guided by the gentle melodies of the Meg Morley Trio and the unshackled phrasing of Let Spin.

Corey Mwamba sets sail on a new adventure in the cosmos of improvised music.

Pianist Meg Morley is joined by drummer Emiliano Caroselli and Richard Sadler at the bass in her new album ‘A Journey Through Home’ that stands out for its enchanting and warm atmospheres. The same elegant playing is to be found in the freshly released improvisations from the Mancunian duo, Mark Hanslip and Andrew Cheetham, fusing soft singing lines with multi-textural percussion.

Elsewhere in the programme, an exclusive live extract from the recent Meakusma Festival in Eupen, Belgium, featuring Anil Eraslan, Tom Malmendier and Ignaz Schick, plus a track from Let Spin's forthcoming album ‘Thick As Thieves’, which captures their vital post-jazz and post-punk spirit.
