Hopetoun Brown

Ashley Grogan from UXBRIDGE Arts and Culture

Three of the country's finest musicians stomp and parp across a musical landscape of blues, roots, soul and jazz live on stage. You'll see sweat dripping from the furrowed foreheads of these musicians as they ring every last decibel from their trumpets, trombones, tubas, bass clarinets, tenor saxophones, cornets and pianos. Did we mention the vibraphone....? It's an exotic and atmospheric pitched percussion instrument usually found at the back of the orchestra or holding up a Henry Mancini film score. This show is a journey through what's possible with these unconventional instruments.
