Events Description
The Atlantic Jazz Collective is coming to the National Arts Centre with their brand-new music from their Seascape album set to release on May 2nd.
The Atlantic Jazz Collective is a group of 3 JUNO award-winning artists from Canada’s Atlantic Region: Saxophonist Mike Murley, bassist Jim Vivian and pianist Florian Hoefner.
For their first project, they have invited revered UK-based vocalist Norma Winstone and legendary drummer Joe LaBarbera to join them. Both Winstone and LaBarbara, now in the latter stages of their careers, have participated in iconic recordings that have shaped modern jazz’s direction and set standards for vocal and piano trio recordings.
The quintet met for an inaugural performance and recording in St. John’s in September 2023. The result will be released under the title Seascape on May 2nd, 2025, on Alma Records. The repertoire includes reimagined versions of pieces by Maria Schneider, Kenny Wheeler, John Taylor, Ralph Towner, Steve Swallow and others. A brilliant wordsmith whose timeless, poetic lyrics have set the standard for the contemporary jazz art song, Winstone has written original lyrics to these previously instrumental pieces. To celebrate the release, the quintet is embarking on a cross-Canada tour to present the repertoire live.
