Description: | Mark Lockheart, saxophone; Huw Warren, piano; Dudley Phillips, bass; Martin France, percussion Formed in 1992 by four of the most distinctive jazz musicians and composers in Britain, Perfect Houseplants rapidly achieved a reputation as one of the most innovative and challenging jazz groups to emerge in the 1990s. Its unique and colourful compositions and musical interaction has established it as one of the most adventurous groups in Europe today. Perfect Houseplants has performed throughout Europe at many major festivals as well as recording for BBC Radio 2 and Radio 3. Perfect Houseplants is renowned for its crossover projects with the award-winning early music group the Orlando Consort, baroque violinist Andrew Manze, and more recently for its reworkings of English folk music with virtuoso recorder player Pamela Thorby. This concert of pure unadulterated jazz, featuring music from the Perfect Houseplants' New Folk Songs Suite and new music, follows on from the medieval/crossover concert with the Orlando Consort and forms part of the Brighton Early Music Festival's medieval/jazz day. |
