Celebrating the Jazz Clubs
Italian singer Germana Stella La Sorsa brings her original music at Cadogan Hall, for an afternoon of contemporary jazz that draws upon modern sounds and grooves, from drum’n’bass to Latin music.
Germana Stella La Sorsa (voice)
Sam Leak (Hammond organ)
Tom Ollendorff (guitar)
Jay Davis (drums)
Germana Stella La Sorsa’s voice has been described as “powerful when required, but also capable of great variety and soulful subtlety” (Jazz Journal). The Italian singer released her debut album 'Vapour' in 2021 (33Jazz Records) and melds her disparate influences in her second studio album, 'Primary Colours', released in January 2024.
Praised as “a sure-fire statement of her confident stature amongst London's top jazz cats.” (Presto Music), La Sorsa’s new work continues to ride the contemporary/avant-garde jazz wave, further exploring the boundaries of improvisation and sound experimentation, drawing upon modern sounds and grooves, from drum’n’bass to Latin music.
For this concert, La Sorsa is joined by Sam Leak on Hammond organ, Tom Ollendorff on guitar and Jay Davis on drums. The band will perform a selection of the singer’s originals from her releases and arrangements of tunes by Hermeto Pascoal and Frank Zappa.
