SUMMARY:Purcell School for Young Musicians Big Band led by Martin Shaw\, featuring Derek Nash
DESCRIPTION:Early Doors 6:45: BJazz’s initiative to Showcase Emerging Talent tonight presents both the NSL Fusion Trio at 7:10-7:50 then at 8:00 pm has a brilliant jazz Band from a renowned local music school\, with guest star Derek Nash on sax. Expect a high energy mixture of well-known jazz standards\, as well as Derek Nash’s own compositions\, in a huge variety of styles. The band will be led by Martin Shaw to a programme produced by Simon Allen\, both luminaries of Jazz in Britain. \nMartin Shaw:  Martin Shaw is widely regarded as one of the finest jazz trumpet players in Europe. A well established and hugely respected studio and touring musician\, his powerful yet wonderfully fluent playing has been heard with the likes of Sting\, Jamiroquai\, The Brand New Heavies\, Natalie Cole\, the BBC Big Band\, John Dankworth and Cleo Laine\, Stan Tracey\, Kenny Wheeler and Guy Barker.\n\n\n\nDerek Nash: British Jazz Award-winning Derek Nash – bandleader\, composer\, arranger\, record producer and engineer – is one of the UK’s busiest jazz musicians. He is leader of six bands\, each with its own unique sound and featuring some of the top jazz musicians in the UK today. Derek has been a full-time member of the Jools Holland Rhythm & Blues Orchestra since 2004 and is also a member of the Ronnie Scott’s Blues Explosion\, sharing the stage with many great artists including Tom Jones\, Eric Clapton\, David Sanborn\, Jack Bruce\, Amy Winehouse\, Michael Buble and Sir Paul McCartney.\n\n\nThe Purcell School for Young Musicians is a boarding and day school for young musicians 10-18yrs in Bushey and is Britain’s oldest music school. It provides a rounded education with music at its heart to approximately 190 talented young players\, singers and composers. \nEntry is based upon musical ability and potential\, not upon background or ability to pay\, thanks to the Government’s Music and Dance Scheme and the School’s own Bursaries. Jazz is a popular part of its curriculum and the Big Band nurtures the next generation of jazz musicians. \nStudents of The Purcell School regularly win scholarships to the best music colleges in the UK and abroad\, and enjoy frequent success in competitions across the globe. \nThe Purcell School for Young Musicians\, Bushey (purcell-school.org)
