Jess Gillam Ensemble
Jess Gillam EnsemblePresented by Saffron Hall
The film music of Michael Nyman, dreamscapes by Debussy and Nadia Boulanger, music from the baroque concerto repertoire; only Jess Gillam could weave these together into a convincing, seamless whole!
Accompanied by a hand-picked all-star band of musicians who share her bold, open-minded approach, Jess effortlessly switches styles and eras, leading us in a whirlwind tour of her musical world. Full of warmth, energy, mellifluous sound and astonishing virtuosity, this is an evening rich in promise from an outstanding natural communicator.
