Jonny Mansfield & Dominic Ingham
contemporary jazz post-bop
Influences: Jean-Luc Ponty, Stéphane Grappelli, Ornette Coleman
Dominic Ingham plays violin in a quartet with Nina Gat (piano), Mathieu Scala (double bass) and Ananda Brandão (drums), performing original compositions that blend British folk roots, classical training and contemporary jazz. The music is modern and lyrical, drawing on Brian Blade and Sam Wilkes, with the violin carrying melodic lines over rhythmically driven, open-form band playing. Ingham was nominated for the 2020 Parliamentary Jazz Awards Jazz Newcomer of the Year and was a finalist in the Zbigniew Seifert International Jazz Violin Competition.
