ADRIAN COX: PROFOUNDLY BLUE

Profoundly Blue is a concert celebrating the music of Louisiana-born clarinettist Edmond Hall, where Adrian (clarinet), with his world-class quartet featuring Joe Webb (piano) Simon Read (double bass) and Gethin Jones (drums), brings to life an enjoyable selection of Hall’s work with Eddie Condon, Teddy Wilson and of course, Louis Armstrong.

The title Profoundly Blue comes from the 1941 hit album which featured Edmond Hall along with Meade Lux Lewis and Charlie Christian. Cox leads the quartet with this as a starting point and continues through a programme of lesser-known tunes from the albums Rumpus on Rampart Street and Petit Fleur.

Adrian’s knowledge and love for the music of his jazz hero has been met with sold-out shows across Europe and rave reviews.
