\"24<\/a>
\nNext year, the Jazz at the Lincoln Center Orchestra is starting something of a residency at the Barbican and other venues in East London. It’ll happen for at least a couple of years in the run-up to the Olympics.
\nAll I can say is that on 1 October, when tickets go on sale, you should rush out and get some because this is always a visit that’s well worth seeing. Even if you’re not the world’s biggest jazz aficionado – and clearly I’m not – the passion, skill and above all, the music is unmissable.
\nI’ve seen Marsalis play at least twice<\/a> before<\/a> at the Barbican and once more at a Prom<\/a>. There’s always a theme to these concerts and this time around we heard lots of movements from a specially commissioned piece for Spain. As such, he had a guest in Chano Dominguez, the Spanish pianist. In one piece he and JLCO regular Dan Nimmer<\/a> switched multiple times on piano duties – at one point “duelling”.
\nIt wouldn’t be Marsalis without some Ellington, and we got a glorious solo from Joe Temperly<\/a> playing a piece who’s name I didn’t catch (Rose?)<\/strike> “The Single Petal of a Rose” (thanks to the FT<\/a>) on a glorious bass clarinet.
\nAnother Brit in the orchestra is Elliot Mason<\/a> and Marsalis insisted that his parents who were in the audience stand up and take a bow.
\nEl Pira\u00f1a came on for a couple of pieces at the end, playing percussion (basically a box) adding some more flamenco to the New Orleans jazz proceedings.
\nThe evening ended in a standing ovation. I’ll be getting my tickets for next year…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
