John Taylor first made his mark on the jazz scene in the 1970s when he collaborated with the likes of Cleo Laine, Ronnie Scott, Jan Garbarek and Kenny Wheeler.  As a solo performer and with his own trio, John Taylor is at the pinnacle of his career with a sophisticated and sensitive style that appeals to lovers of classical and jazz repertoire alike.  In this solo concert he features music by Kenny Wheeler alongside his own pieces and standards.

‘Taylor played as if the piano were his orchestra, always intriguing and filled with sumptuous chords, groove-alerting cross-rhythms and nimble lines.  His playing is strikingly original and immediate, as if the piano has revealed all kinds of secrets to him that are kept from most other musicians.’ Ottowa Citizen
