This weekend, from Friday 3 February to Sunday 5 February, the Music Department will present The Loop Project, part of the Turner Sims concert series.
Accompanied by leading Jazz musicians, the HARTLEY Loop Orchestra will perform a major revision of Benjamin Oliver’s Loop Concerto. Re-scored for jazz trio and large ensemble, the work finds a musical space somewhere between jazz and contemporary classical languages.
The main concert at 19:00 on Sunday 5 February will feature new works by Dr Benjamin Oliver and Andrew Fisher, as well as music by Gavin Bryars (who wrote Jesus’ Love Never Failed Me Yet) and Mozart.
Southampton music students will also be performing alongside leading jazz musicians, Ivo Neame (piano), Jasper Hoiby (bass) and Jon Scott (drums).
Tickets are £5 for students and £10 for staff.
