‘The Eddie Prévost Quartet featuring:  Nathaniel Catchpole: tenor
saxophone. Philip Somervell: piano. Guillaume Viltard: double bass
and Eddie Prévost drums.

 + special guest : Jamie Coleman on trumpet !

Eddie Prévost is one of the founding innovators of the new improvisationary music that emerged in the 1960s. His own contribution spans the experimentalism implicit in the music of AMM — with its emphasis upon exploring sound sources — as well as experimental references to the world of jazz. This band — which features musicians much younger than Prevost — is drawn together through  association with Prévost’s workshop. It displays many of the tonal and poly-rhythmic characteristics of jazz.  But there is a strong emphasis on exploring the nature of sound and upon collective playing. The ensemble defies many of the tired characterizations: it is not ‘free-jazz’, it is not ‘free-bop’,
it is not free-improvisation’. It plays so as if to define and to assert its own identity.’
