Musician

Nick Malcolm

Born:

Nick is an original, exciting and heart-felt improviser. His rich, warm sound and sense of improvisational daring inform each and every musical situation and he plays with a total commitment to the music in the moment, whatever the stylistic context. His own quartet plays original compositions combining the rhythmic and harmonic complexities of contemporary jazz with the intensity and interaction of free improvisation.

At the level of pure pedantry no piece of music can be more “real" than any other, yet what this unfortunate formulation is meant to signify is that ...

Moonlight Saving Time: Meeting At Night

Read "Meeting At Night" reviewed by Roger Farbey


"Clouds" opens this set with a barely audible intake of breath, Emily Wright's dulcet voice, augmented in resplendent harmony by multi-tracking, is instantly indicative of her prodigious ability. The “Englishness" of Wright's vocal delivery is also obvious on the title track (with words by Victorian poet Robert Browning), where at times she channels that doyenne of ...
