special one-off performance, featuring rising star saxophonist Emma Rawicz. An alumnus of both the Royal Academy of Music and Leeds College of Music, Mike has performed with leading figures on the UK jazz scene and received widespread acclaim for his album "Chrysalis" (Fresh Sound New Talent). His music fuses jazz improvisation with the atmospheric intensity of alternative rock and indie-folk, drawing comparisons to Radiohead and Big Thief, while maintaining a strong melodic and rhythmic identity. Joining him is Emma Rawicz, a remarkable talent at just 23 years old. With three critically acclaimed albums ("Incantation", "Chroma", "Big Visit"), a signing to the prestigious ACT label, and performances at venues like the Berlin Philharmonie and Queen Elizabeth Hall, Emma is recognised as one of the most exciting voices in contemporary jazz. A BBC New Generation Artist (2024–26), she is the youngest ever Artist in Residence at the Cambridge Jazz Festival. The quintet also features Rick Simpson-piano/synth, Huw V Williams-bass and Jay Davis-drums. Expect an evening of transformative, genre-blurring jazz from two of the UK’s most visionary artists.

66 years after its release, Kind of Blue (featuring saxophonists John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley and pianist Bill Evans) remains the best-selling jazz album of all time with over four million copies sold. Alongside Miles’s revered quintet and sextet albums of the 1950s his work with arranger and bandleader Gil Evans ranks among the most celebrated collaborations in jazz history. This concert features music from their first two albums together, Miles Ahead and Porgy and Bess. The delicacy of Evans’ impressionistic work on his albums with Davis is breathtaking. Using instruments seldom heard in jazz – oboe, alto and bass flutes, French horns, bass clarinets and tuba – he created a gorgeous backdrop for the solo trumpet. The role of Miles will be shared by Steve Fishwick (in the small band selections) and Freddie Gavita, winner of Best Trumpet Player at the 2017 British Jazz Awards. The concert will be presented by music journalist, author and TV presenter David Hepworth.
