Cape Town born pianist and composer Philip Clouts’ South African roots have led him on a voyage of discovery, soaking up the joyful passion of Caribbean calypso, the bluesy melodies of middle eastern praise songs, the exuberant sway of Cuban dance music and the tuneful essence of Gospel while honouring jazz heroes including Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett.The Philip Clouts Quartet has been a major focus of his composing and playing, with the latest album ‘Umoya’ titled from the Zulu word for ‘life force’. Philip has played at Ronnie Scott’s, Birmingham Symphony Hall and the Glastonbury Festival. His music has been played on BBC’s Jamie Cullum Show, and Jazz FM has praised it, saying “it has a very infectious feel-good quality.”
Accompanied by exceptional double bassist Ron Phelan, this intimate performance will take place in the drawing room at Arundells on Sir Edward Heath’s beloved Steinway piano. Alongside Philip’s compositions, they’ll present pieces from jazz legends Django Reinhardt, George Gershwin, Duke Ellington and Thelonious Monk.
Due to space restrictions tickets are extremely limited, book early to avoid disappointment.
“Clouts has particularly subtle judgement when it comes to harmonising simple melodies, making them neither too bare nor over-elaborate.” The Observer
“A gospel-powered earthiness emerges in the relaxed funkiness of his piano solo” The Guardian
“The best of British jazz” Jazz FM
