LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL: Gwilym Simcock

Dazzling virtuoso pianist Simcock is known for his sterling sideman work with Bill Bruford and Tim Garland, and more recently as a fully-fledged solo artist. Performing solo here will allow him to show the full range of his abilities, as he draws on jazz and classical influences, driven by his percussive, Corea-esque sense of rhythm and his extraordinary stylistic range.
