Jazz on 3

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Tonight's concert features lain
Ballamy's Food for Quartet - a new Anglo-Norwegian collaboration between lain Ballamy (saxophones), Thomas Stronen (drums), Mats
Eilerstein (bass) and Arve Henrikson (prepared trumpet and effects). The combination of a tight rhythm section and two brass players produces music which is at once beautiful, humorous and surprising. The project was commissioned by the Cheltenham Jazz Festival and recorded there in April. It is also the 40th anniversary of John Coltrane 's Giant Steps album, and Jazz on 3 assesses its lasting impact on contemporary jazz.
