Jim Rattigan

A welcome back to Jim Rattigan with his new work, recorded and released as “When’. This eloquently inventive composer/bandleader brings together some of UK’s finest players from both jazz and classical music. Idiomatic diversity and intuitive flexibility combine to make this an evening to relish. French horn virtuoso Jim Rattigan bridges the genres of scored music and jazz with this delightful collection of tunes for jazz quartet and string quartet; the results are sparkling.

Line up: Jim Rattigan - french horn, composer/arranger, Alcyona Mick – piano, Conor Chaplain - double bass, James Maddren – drums with the Tear String Quartet
