Tom Thorp’s Ilumetris
PLEASE NOTE NEW VENUE: The Spa Pub, 45 Victoria Road YO11 1SH.
International award-winning saxophonist/composer Tom Thorp brings his exciting new quintet, Ilumetris, to Scarborough Jazz Club at its new venue in The Spa Pub. Continuing their UK/European tour the band will be playing music from their new album ‘Here, There be Monsters…’ which brings to musical life the legendary creatures of world mythology inspired by Tom’s lakeside walks with his dog.
After writing for an electric band for the last few years, Tom wanted to write for an acoustic band also drawing on his classical background. The music blends melodic lyricism with complex textures and exploratory improvisations, gently leading the listener into new territories, with subtle and intriguing style. Tom’s distinctive saxophonic voice pairs seamlessly with the unique trumpet/flugelhorn talent Neil Yates. A rhythm section of Andy Stamatakis-Brown (piano), Grant Russell (bass) and John Arnesen (drums) provide an endlessly creative vehicle for the vivid narratives in this engaging new work.
Doors 7.45. Music begins 8.15. £10. Advance tickets available - call 07703 434796 or email bobwalker4@btinternet.com
