Presented by Saffron Hall

Martin Speake

End the week with a laid-back evening in the Saffron Hall foyer. A well-stocked bar, food truck Road Dogs serving a superb selection of street food, plus live music from Martin Speake. Eat, drink, get into the swing and unwind!

Citing Charlie Parker, Paul Motian, Lee Konitz, Keith Jarrett, Ornette Coleman and Rabih Abou Khalil amongst his major influences, Martin Speake has developed a personal musical voice that expresses a deep understanding of the history and language of jazz and an individuality as an improviser that is intelligent, melodic, direct, beautiful and profound.

A member of the saxophone quartet Itchy Fingers in the 80s, he has recorded 18 albums as leader including the internationally acclaimed ECM release Change Of Heart with Paul Motian, Bobo Stenson and Mick Hutton.
