Monthly jazz night for Norwich. An informal evening of food, drink and vibes for the jazz lover
Five-Way Split
with Quentin Collins (trumpet) Vasilis Xenopoulos (tenor) Rob Barron (piano) Matyas Hofecker (bass) Matt Home (drums)
Formed in 2020, Five-Way Split is a jointly-led band featuring some of the finest contemporary jazz bebop musicians working in the UK.
Picking up the baton from groups such as Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers as well as mirroring New York’s contemporary-bop scene, the band presents a sound that respects the tradition of the hard-bop era whilst also bringing it up-to-date for today’s audience. Expect to hear an extensive repertoire of carefully-crafted and imaginative original compositions, along with cool, swinging material by greats like Jimmy Heath, Cedar Walton and Horace Silver.
