Tommaso Starace Quintet Etmo
Royal Festival Hall (Purcell Room), London
Eight black and white photographs by celebrated Magnum Agency photographer Elliott Erwitt provide the inspiration for talented Italian saxophonist Tommaso Starace and his all-star quintet. Projected on stage, the photographs add intrigue to Starace's beautifully melodic retro-jazz compositions, while the music allows the audience to explore the still images in incredible depth, finding narratives and new meanings.
