Description
Kenny Wheeler and Norma Winstone were at the forefront of the European Jazz scene collectively for the past five decades, gaining admiration and reverence from all generations of musicians and fans. With the release of 'Mirrors', a suite of music composed by Kenny Wheeler set to poems by Stevie Smith, Lewis Carroll and W.B. Yeats, they are joined by the London Vocal Project, a 24 piece choir directed by the inimitable Pete Churchill. Featuring some of the renowned and celebrated musicians in British Jazz including pianist Nikki Iles, saxophonist Mark Lockheart, bassist Steve Watts and drummer James Maddren, Mirrors is vast in conception and world class in its execution.
