Something of a UK super group, Out Front formed to play the music of two of jazz’s greatest ‘inside-outside’ masters: Booker Little and Andrew Hill. Drawing on a wealth of fabulous compositions and featuring a rich line-up of three horns, drums and bass, the band explores the vast possibilities of this music, from joyous straight ahead time playing, to the most open of improvisation.
Pre-Show Performance
6.15pm to 7pm: Tonight’s performance will be preceded by a performance in the bar by students from the Bristol Pre-Conservatoire. As part of their autumn UK tour, members of Out Front have been mentoring the students from PreCon, helping them prepare some of the music that Out Front will be performing in the Glass Studio later this evening. This will be a fascinating opportunity to hear students and professionals presenting the same music; members of Out Front may well make some guest appearances with the students before the main performance!
