Chapter 1, Episode 3: [Title to be Confirmed]
Tuesday 23rd March, 8pm
Grove Gardens Chapel, Richmond
Through the Arch welcomes the acclaimed David Gordon Trio for an intimate evening of exceptional live jazz in the beautiful surroundings of Grove Gardens Chapel, Richmond.
Led by internationally renowned pianist and composer David Gordon, alongside the bassist Oli Hayhurst and drummer Tom Hopper, the trio brings together three highly acclaimed artists whose shared creativity and musical understanding lie at the heart of their performances.
Drawing inspiration from a remarkable breadth of musical traditions, from Baroque and classical music to contemporary jazz, their performances are characterised by an extraordinary sense of musical exploration, creativity and colour.
David Gordon's distinguished career has taken him from London's legendary Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club to the international concert stage, including performances at the BBC Proms. His musical journey has included collaborations with celebrated jazz musicians such as Keith Tippett and Andy Sheppard, alongside his appointment as harpsichordist of the internationally renowned Baroque orchestra The English Concert.
Tom Hopper on drums has toured and recorded with an impressive array of artists, including Grace Jones, Omar, Skye, Christian Garrick and Steve Harley. His career has taken him to celebrated venues including London's 606 Club, Crazy Coqs and PizzaExpress Jazz Club, as well as renowned recording studios such as Rockfield and AIR Studios.
A highly sought-after double bassist on the London jazz scene, Oli Hayhurst has enjoyed an illustrious international career, performing alongside jazz legends including Pharoah Sanders, Gilad Atzmon and Zoe Rahman. A graduate of the Royal Academy of Music, he has appeared on over 60 albums and performed at prestigious venues including Ronnie Scott’s and the Blue Note in Milan, bringing his distinctive musicality and versatility to an extraordinary range of collaborations.
All together their performances embrace the delicate balance between structure and spontaneity, allowing musical ideas to develop organically through intricate interplay, imaginative interpretation and a shared instinct for improvisation. The result is music that can be reflective and lyrical one moment, rhythmically exhilarating the next, always driven by curiosity and the excitement of musical discovery.
Nestled in the heart of Richmond, Grove Gardens Chapel provides an intimate and atmospheric setting for an evening of exceptional jazz.
Part of Through the Arch's curated programme of exceptional music in extraordinary heritage spaces, this promises to be an evening where musical imagination meets the unique character of a historic setting.
