DESCRIPTION:Experience jazz in the country\nA salute to saxophonist Stan Getz with a broad and exciting repertoire from lush ballads and bossa novas to motoring be bop compositions \nIn a 20 year career James Allsopp has been a featured performer and recording artist for an incredibly diverse range of musicians. James has played in concert and on albums by legendary artists such as The Last Poets\, David Axelrod\, Dr John and Mulatu Astake\, for European jazz luminaries such as Django Bates\, Nostalgia 77\, Kit Downes and Polar Bear\, on more commercial albums by Jamie Cullum and Jorja Smith and as featured soloist in a wide range of compositions by composer Brian Irvine. \nJames’s debut album was nominated for BBC Jazz Award for Best Album 2007 and he won the BBC Jazz Award for Innovation 2008 \n“perhaps the most gifted British saxophonist of his generation\, not to mention the most adaptable.” Underscore music magazine \nThe evening comprises a salute to saxophonist Stan “The Sound” Getz. with a broad and exciting repertoire from lush ballads and bossa novas to swinging standards and motoring bebop compositions. Expect a varied program reflecting this range of material with a respectful but not reverential interpretation of the music of Stan Getz\, allowing it to breathe and feel natural for our time. \nColin Oxley studied at the Guildhall School\, graduating in 1990.
