This celebratory festival gig draws together new commissioned big band pieces by incredible composers including Laura Jurd, Nikki Iles, Rebecca Nash and Laura Cole, that shows how healthy the modern jazz scene is.
At the heart of this is Meet Me in The Middle, a new big band piece by award-winning saxophonist and composer Emma Johnson. Exploring themes of belonging and what it is to be welcomed and welcoming, the title is inspired by the search for Home, commissioned especially for the talents of the Hull Youth Jazz Orchestra by the Jazz Festival.
