Birmingham Jazz Presents : Nikki Illes
One of Britain’s most loved Pianists, playing with old friends
About Event
Nikki has been described as the “Heroine of British Jazz” and is Award winning jazz pianist and composer and was a founder member of the innovative Creative Jazz Orchestra, and current Artistic Director of the NDR Orchestra. In the 1990’s Mike Walker formed a band in Manchester with himself and Nikki, Steve & Dave. This quartet was their grounding in jazz writing and performing. That early grounding formed a special bond between them, creating a new and lasting sound. For this gig these old friends will reunite at the 1000 Trades as old friends perfuming their original tunes in that enigmatic style.
