Eddie Prevost – drums / Phillip Somervell – piano /Guillaume Viltard - double-bass

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 trio is drawn together through association with Prévost’s workshop. Not free-jazz, not ‘free-bop, not free-improvisation, the trio displays many of the tonal and poly-rhythmic characteristics of jazz, but there is a strong emphasis on exploring the nature of sound and on collective playing.

Also playing :

Predicate is a new quartet led by Alex Ward – ‘a compulsively creative polymath’ (Stewart Lee); ‘one of those players who seems to get interesting music out of anything he touches’ (Nate Dorward), and features Tim Hill (alto and baritone saxes), Dominic Lash (double bass) and Mark Sanders (drums). Ward himself plays electric guitar, and provides compositions which drive the music into intense torrents of electric free jazz.
