trumpetAbout
One of the most distinguished contemporary jazz composers, Carla Bley performs with her Lost Chords Quartet, featuring British saxophonist Andy Sheppard alongside bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Billy Drummond. They are joined by special-guest trumpeter Paolo Fresu. These five superb musicians interpret Carla’s enchanting music with emotional depth and connect through blues, ballads, lyrical arias and the occasional ruckus.
