Murcof is an influential electronic producer on The Leaf Label, who draws inspiration from baroque music, jazz and art music.  

Francesco Tristano is a pianist who seeks encounters outside the concert hall, performing with dance music legends Carl Craig and Moritz von Oswald, and working with his band Aufgang.

This performance blends acoustic improvisation and electronic processing, splashing the sound field with chromatic colour, veiled melodies and propulsive percussive textures.

The brainchild of multiinstrumentalist, composer and producer Joe Acheson, Scotland’s Hidden Orchestra build multiple layers of mesmerising sound, with the direct attack of rock and the dynamic of jazz improv underpinned by deep grooves direct from the dancefloor. Their new CD on Tru Thoughts, Night Walks, is scheduled for autumn release.

 

Part of the London Jazz Festival in association with BBC Radio 3
