New York Standards Quartet
The University of Hull, for Hull Jazz Festival, presents:
The New York Standards Quartet (NYSQ) is made up of pianist David Berkman, drummer Gene Jackson, saxophonist Tim Armacost, and double bassist Daiki Yasukagawa. As a band, the New York-based unit have developed a near telepathic relationship playing together in a variety of settings since their formation in 2006. Conceptually, the NYSQ strives to develop its own language within the tradition of performing standard jazz repertoire.
"a group devoted to radical reinvention of famous pop songs and Broadway show tunes…This is a collective class act." The Guardian ****
The concert will be followed at 2.30pm with a Jazz workshop for University of Hull students. Observers welcome
