FROME Jazz Club’s latest ‘Stolen Moments’ free concert series will feature saxophonist Sam Crockatt, double bassist Henrik Jensen and pianist Keith Harrison-Broninski who will play lyrical original compositions on Saturday 9th March at Christ Church from 3pm to 5pm.
Sam and Henrik are among the UK’s leading jazz musicians. Winner of a Parliamentary Jazz Award, Sam is a powerful, distinctive, and supremely accomplished voice on the tenor saxophone with several acclaimed albums to his name. Bassist and composer Henrik has also released several albums and is in demand as a sideman at the forefront of the UK jazz scene.
Frome Jazz Club say, “Do you ever feel that even your weekends are too busy and demanding? That you need time out, just to relax? Stolen Moments is a new kind of jazz event. A late Saturday afternoon interlude in the liminal space between day and evening. True downtime, in a beautiful church, to do nothing but enjoy exquisite modern jazz and delicious cakes.
“Tickets are not necessary and entry is free. Just come along to Christ Church, Frome from 3 pm to 5 pm. The concerts are informal occasions and you are welcome to drop in and out. Refreshments are available as well as cushions for the pews!
“For those that missed Stolen Moments on 10th February, the gorgeous music of Bacharach and David featuring Rosanna Schura and Nathan Mansfield, recordings will be broadcast on Frome FM at 11 pm on Sunday 3rd March then again at 7 pm on Wednesday 6th March. In the meantime, highlight recordings will be coming online gradually – you can listen now to This Girl’s In Love.”
