MARCH 2010
Bach ReLoaded
Thursday 18th March 8.30 p.m.
Doors open at 8
£10/£7 members and concessions
Double bassist Jenni Molloy's innovative and original compositions have been inspired by some of Bach's rhythmic and melodic ideas.
They have been tweaked, squashed and tampered with, lifted from the confines of tradition and slammed into a jazz-fuelled environment; all with due respect and admiration for arguably the most prolific composer that ever lived.

'Superb... heartening stuff' Sunday Times
'Jenni Molloy is a virtuoso of the double bass…(Bach ReLoaded) provides listeners with a constantly varied and totally absorbing experience.' Pete Martin of Jazz UK
