成人快手 CO - Trading Roots
Martin Handley presents a concert from the Hackney Empire in London, entitled Trading Roots, a programme of multi-cultural jazz and world music, inspired by the ancient Spice Route.
Presented by Martin Handley.
Recorded at the Hackney Empire in London, the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra and the Grand Union Orchestra join forces to bring a timeless journey across shifting sands and turbulent seas as Trading Roots explores a tapestry of sounds drawn from China to Africa, tracing the path of traders and travellers along the ancient Spice Route. This concert features well known jazz soloists, singers and leading musicians from all over the world - but it also includes a special performance from the 成人快手 CO Fusion Group, an extraordinary multicultural collection of young musicians from London. Tony Haynes' new work The Golden Road, The Unforgiving Sea, commissioned by Radio 3, ties the concert together.
