Jazz On The Plaza feat. Tommaso Starace w. Terence Collie & Esther NG
Details
Jazz on the Plaza returns with another outstanding evening of live jazz. Terence Collie (on Café Yukari's magnificent Fazioli grand piano) will be joined by acclaimed Italian saxophonist Tommaso Starace on alto saxophone and Esther Ng on double bass, performing an evening of swinging standards, lyrical ballads and audience favourites.
Originally from Milan and now firmly established as one of the UK's leading jazz saxophonists, Tommaso is renowned for his warm tone, lyrical improvisations and deep-rooted swing. Over the course of his distinguished career, he has shared the stage with artists including Billy Cobham, David Liebman, Kenny Wheeler and Jim Mullen and continues to be a regular presence on jazz club and festival stages throughout Europe. Tommaso has recently released a new album with his Organ Trio, Live at the Beaver Inn, a recording that captures the energy and spontaneity of one of Britain's most enduring jazz traditions.
Completing the trio is Oxford-based bassist Esther Ng. Originally from Singapore, Esther is a highly regarded performer on the UK jazz scene and brings warmth and musical sensitivity to every performance. Alongside her musical career she also holds a doctorate in Genomic Medicine and Statistics and has worked in medicine and scientific research, making her one of the most multi-talented musicians on the British jazz scene today.
