Jonthan Gee Trio with Roberto Manzin – presented by North Devon Jazz Club
April 14 at 8:30 pm
Italian Saxophonist Joins Top UK Pianist
Italian saxophonist Roberto Manzin will join a trio led by top UK pianist Jonathan Gee at North Devon Jazz Club in The Beaver, Appledore on 14th April.
With a technique described by Time Out as ‘scorching’ Manzin has received rave reviews for his playing. Jazzwise Magazine recommended him as ‘ to be heard to be believed’ and ‘as a melodist first and foremost, who gradually unfolds a solo and builds up to a compelling conclusion’ while London Jazz described his playing as having ‘something of the chromatic excitement of (Michael) Brecker and the soulfulness of (David) Sanborn’.
Pianist Jonathan Gee has been praised by the Independent as a ‘reflective, beautifully poised pianist’ , by Time Out as ‘sparky and sensitive’ and by Jazzwise Magazine for ‘his breathlessly sparkling originality’.
The two musicians will be joined by the fine rhythm team of Marcus Vergette on bass and Louie North on drums.
The gig is hosted by the North Devon Jazz Club. Thank you NDJC. There is no entrance fee, however a collection is taken for the band. For a meal booking please phone The Beaver on 01237 474822
