Jazz At St Andrews presents; PETE LONG.
Pete started on the road with the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, playing all five saxophone parts, flute, bass guitar and, on one rather messy occasion, the fourth trumpet. Having the unusual inclination to play modern jazz on the rather “old-fashioned” clarinet, he has written several works for clarinet and big band and established a tradition of clarinet solos in NYJO, which has plagued the saxophone section ever since. Expect witty solos and repartee on the microphone from this larger-than-life national treasure. With Roy Hilton – piano, Chris Coull – trumpet, Simon Thorpe – double bass, Joe Edwards – drums.

Tony Kofi has long been at the forefront of the British jazz scene, with a tone and improvisational style that emulates the great Charlie ‘Bird’ Parker, the godfather of post-war bebop.
