David Gordon
post-bop contemporary jazz
Influences: Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, Keith Jarrett
David Gordon plays piano in a trio with Oli Hayhurst on bass and Tom Hooper on drums, delivering lively, inventive jazz with a sparkling touch and a playful sense of humour. The set on this night draws from 'In C', their live album built around the concept of performing an entire set in the key of C, followed by a second set of the trio's compositions old and new. Gordon is one of the few professional musicians established in both jazz and classical worlds, and the trio's album 'Alexander Scriabin's Ragtime Band' was named MOJO's Jazz CD of the Year.
Personnel:
David Gordon (piano)
