Join us for our final concert in this season as critically acclaimed Pianist Rebecca Nash joins the Adam Stokes Trio in paying tribute to ‘The High Priest of Bebop’, the unique Thelonious Monk. Monk was a true visionary, uncompromising in his style and artistic vision as a composer and pianist.
Rebecca Nash is one the UK’s top pianists and composers. Her latest record Redefining Element 78 was commissioned by Bristol Jazz Festival and released on Whirlwind Recordings; the work presents a new compositional voice of increasing clarity, distilling elements of her previous album and fusing them together with classical influences such as late Scriabin, Debussy, and Bartok along with free improvisation and post tonal approaches. Alongside her celebrated work as a band leader Rebecca works regularly with top UK musicians Sara Colman, Nick Walters, Iain Ballamy and Dee Byrne and has performed at the the EFG London Jazz Festival, Cheltenham Jazz Festival, We Out Here Festival, The World Economic Forum, Love Supreme Festival, Manchester Jazz Festival, and Ronnie Scott’s amongst others. Rebecca recently gave a broadcast for BBC Radio 3’s J to Z, as well as a solo performance at Turner Sims for International Women’s Day.
