Solo piano with dancer Nigel Charnock plus the Gwilym Simcock Trio
Two hugely talented artists join forces for the first time to create a work of wondrous mayhem as Gwilym Simcock, one of the UK's most gifted pianists and imaginative composers, meets the maverick performer and internationally acclaimed choreographer Nigel Charnock, co-founder of DV8 physical theatre, soloist and improvisor.
This collaboration produces a heady cocktail of jazz standards, free improvisation and powerful physical theatre in an uncensored celebration of music and movement. The performance is complemented by a special appearance by the Gwilym Simcock Trio. Simcock performs with Yuri Goloubev (bass) and James Maddren (drums). 'Charnock - a meteor ablaze.' (The Times)
