Event Details
“Greening’s trombone has the delicious plumpness of a ripe mango. The sad bits and the funny bits become jumbled, and there can be no higher praise”. (John Shand, SMH)
Greening From Ear to Ear is a seven-piece project, an extension of James Greening’s philosophy – that of music as a dialogue. James has composed a new diverse and engaging suite – Tam O’Shanter Tales, an encapsulation of his creative life so far, tipping his cap to the great musicians that have shaped his vision. Come and witness the joyous range of grooves and moods that James and his extraordinary group of musicians create on their journey. Greening from Ear to Ear features a menagerie of instruments, including James’s 1926 sousaphone – a sight and sound that needs to be seen and heard to be believed.
Performers: James Greening (trombone, pocket trumpet, baritone horn, sousaphone), Gary Daley (piano, accordion), Paul Cutlan (bass clarinet, tenor sax), Andrew Robson (alto, baritone saxes), Brett Hirst (double, e bass), Hamish Stuart (drums), Fabian Hevia (percussion)
