Event Details
Come and spend a Friday night in Ultimo listening to an exceptional piano quartet led by one of Australia's jazz greats - Mike Nock.
Mike Nock has had a career spanning decades across USA, Europe and Australia, has composed and recorded extensively, worked with many high profile musicians globally and nurtured many a young rising star. Since his 1985 return to Australia, his groups have maintained a tradition of introducing outstanding younger musicians to Australian audiences and this band is no exception.
A stellar quartet, featuring new addition and drumming sensation Oli Nelson (winner of the 2013 James Morrison Scholarship), saxophonist Karl Laskowski and heavyweight bassist Brett Hirst, this quartet plays today’s jazz at its exciting best - expect a program of Mike’s originals along with selected jazz standards.
An exciting night of music – expect sparks to fly!
“Pianist Mike Nock created an hour of in-the-moment magic, eschewing flash for feeling and ego-less empathy.” The AGE. 2013
