Celebrating the Jazz Clubs
Showcase of welsh jazz and jazz adjacent music, showcasing musicians from various backgrounds and generations in a beautiful sounding room in central London.
Di-Cysgodion
Di-Cysgodion, led by Welsh bass player/composer HUW V WILLIAMS. The line up consists of Mike De Souza and Billy Marrows both on electric guitar, Jay Davis on drums and Huw V Williams completing the line up on electric bass. Williams goes back to his rock roots with this instrumentation to explore the sonic pallet from the view of a jazz improvisor/composer.
Having previously led projects with no harmony instruments, Huw decided to have a group which deals with harmony head on, exploring dense harmonic voicings paired with infectious rhythms and live stereo guitars. This music comes from a huge pool of influences, including Deerhoof, Ravel, Thelonious Monk, Super Furry Animals, Ornette Coleman, Hermeto and everything inbetween. A musical spectacle not to be missed.
Gwenno Morgan
Gwenno Morgan is a Welsh composer and pianist whose cinematic, neoclassical sound is rooted in emotion, nature, and storytelling. A strong advocate for the role of music in visual and narrative storytelling, Gwenno’s compositions are infused with Welsh folk and jazz influences, often weaving together themes of nature, memory, and place. Her artistry has been recognised with numerous opportunities and accolades, including being a finalist for the 2023 Ysgoloriaeth Bryn Terfel Award and receiving support from BBC Horizons and EOS. At this festival, she will perform works from gwyw alongside older compositions and unreleased pieces, offering audiences a glimpse into both her past and evolving creative direction.
