Shakespeare's plays and poems inspired this high quality Anglo-French project that features three top European jazz musicians, with each song creating a musical portrait of a Shakespeare character. The music is partly improvised and partly written and draws inspiration from Renaissance composers Thomas Morely and William Byrd.
De Chassy and Marguet are an exceptional French piano/drums duo who invited Andy Sheppard, whom they call 'the great English poet of the saxophone', to join them on this 450th anniversary celebration of Shakespeare's birth. These jazz portraits will be premiered at the Globe Theatre two days prior to this performance.
