Our season gets off to the coolest of starts as we welcome members of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra to Parbold for the second time.
The nine jazz musicians, aged from 18 to 25, have been selected from the country’s most talented young players, and are in the early stages of their professional careers.
The National Youth Jazz Orchestra exists to empower and inspire young people across the UK through jazz.
Its work is dedicated to creating a meeting-ground between the established and the experimental – the past, present, and future – to build bespoke artistic programmes, catering to lifelong and new jazz fans.
Transporting us back to 1957, the young musicians recreate ‘The Birth of the Cool’, Miles Davis’ pivotal album that started a jazz revolution and the birth of the ‘cool jazz’ movement.
