SUMMARY:NC Jazz: Clark Tracey’s Jazz Champions
DESCRIPTION:Clark Tracey is a jazz master. An inventive jazz drummer he’s also a proven group leader\, writer and arranger\, having appeared over many years with the world’s jazz greats. With this stellar band he has revived the famous jazz suites written by his late father\, the great pianist & composer Stan Tracey\, bringing masterpieces such as Under Milkwood successfully to admiring younger audiences. “For me Tracey is a world-class musician whose mature and distinctive artistry – his own “ snap-crackle” – is right up there with the likes of Philly Joe Jones and Roy Haynes.” Jazz Journal\, 2024 \nAlan Barnes’ range and brilliance have made him a “first call” for studio and live work since his precocious arrival on the scene more than thirty years ago. His recorded catalogue is immense. He has made over thirty albums as leader and co-leader alone\, and the list of his session and side-man work includes Bjork\, Bryan Ferry\, Michel LeGrande\, Clare Teale\, Westlife\, Jools Holland and Jamie Cullum. He has toured and played residencies with such diverse and demanding figures as Ruby Braff\, Freddie Hubbard\, Scott Hamilton\, Warren Vache\, Ken Peplowski\, Harry Allen and Conte Candoli. \nTenor saxophonist Simon Allen leads his own quartets and quintets. In addition\, he has recorded and performed with Sir Paul McCartney\, Birmingham Royal Ballet\, Phil Collins\, Jamie Cullum\, Beverly Knight and many\, many more. \nDave Newton has been voted Best Jazz Pianist sixteen times by the Jazz audience of the UK. His dynamic and lyrical jazz has perhaps been overshadowed by his work as accompanist for singers such as Marion Montgomery\, Tina May\, Annie Ross\, Claire Martin and of course Stacey Kent\, with whom he spent ten years recording and touring\, travelling all over the world. \nBassist Andy Cleyndert started out in the bands of Don Weller and Bobby Wellins and has since flourished on the jazz scene in the UK and beyond. He has played and toured with the cream of the UK’s musicians and a string of international soloists\, including Bud Shank\, George Coleman\, Ray Bryant\, Lee Konitz and James Moody.

SUMMARY:VISUALISE at 78
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary Stitched Textiles \nThe Bassett-Lowke Rooms \n\n\nSat 8 Mar 2025 – Sun 25 May 2025 \n\n\n\nAn exhibition of Contemporary Stitched Art Textiles \nWe are delighted to be hosting this new exhibition of textiles and mixed media work which has been created by the Visualise textile group. Visualise was formed several years ago\, by like-minded artists who enjoy creating diverse work with stitch as the common thread. \nThe exhibition will also feature work by internationally known textile artist and Embroiderers Guild member Nigel Cheney who is the current mentor to Visualise. \nOn display is a diverse array of abstract\, realistic and figurative art using a wide variety of media: paper\, fabric (new\, distressed and recycled) and found objects which are hand and machine stitched\, or felted to create art inspired by both the natural world and the built environment. \nThe exhibition includes textile art inspired by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and 78 Derngate itself\, with framed and small items for sale. \nCombining a look round the iconic Charles Rennie Mackintosh House before visiting the exhibition\, gardens and shop\, followed by partaking of some drink or food in The Dining Room is the perfect way to spend a glorious few hours in Northampton town. \nThere will be some ‘Meet the Artists’ days during the exhibition\, details as yet to be announced. \nThe members meet regularly in Welford\, Northamptonshire\, with the aim of promoting creativity through rigorous discipline\, underpinned by an interest in the history of textiles worldwide. \nOpening on Saturday 8th March until Sunday 25th May 2025\, closed Mondays\n10am- 4.30 pm – free admission to galleries\, shop and cafe. \nhttps://www.visualise.online/
