Join the multi award-winning UK jazz ensemble Empirical for the launch of their long-awaited new album Wonder is the Beginning, which will be released on Whirlwind Recordings on the day of this concert.
Having started their journey in 2007, Empirical make a triumphant return, re-taking their rightful place at the centre of the UK scene, with their first full-length release since 2016.
Empirical is still a reliable touchstone of contemporary British jazz at its most sophisticated.
Jazzwise
Wonder is the Beginning is a mature musical statement that shows the band’s fire is still undimmed and their commitment to maintaining the legacy while forging their own unique path is as strong as ever.
The personnel of the quartet have remained the same for fifteen years featuring Nathaniel Facey (alto sax), Tom Farmer (double bass), Lewis Wright (vibraphone) and Shaney Forbes (drums).
For this show, as on the album, special guest Jason Rebello adds his unmistakable presence on piano as well as the towering reputation he’s built over a thirty-five-year international career.
This was the height of contemporary jazz from risk-taking players with real commitment.
Calgary Herald
Empirical’s trademark combination of complex, thoughtful writing and spontaneous improvisation is enabled by the absolute trust that comes from years of collective music making, and is at the heart of what makes Empirical stand out consistently on the musical landscape.
Empirical, around for an astonishing 15 years already, are one of the great British contributions to European jazz.

New Yorker Sean Mason is well on his way to becoming a leading pianist/composer of his time. Mason emerges as a guiding luminary, shining his introspective command as both a melodic pianist and composer through the historic lens of jazz to create a work that distills the essence of the genre for our time even as it points the way forward.
Here he presents the London premiere of his debut album ‘The Southern Suite’, which was produced by Branford Marsalis and released on Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Blue Engine Records last year.
Unforgettable gospel-tinged hooks sit on top of a deep, compelling pocket, making for catchy, danceable, forward-looking music
(jazz.org – Jazz at Lincoln Center)
Born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, Sean took to the piano at the age of 13, teaching himself by ear to play the styles of music he was most attracted to. His approach quickly evolved into a highly original language. Sean’s unique voice in jazz is steeped in the sound of the South, allowing an extended time for groove while also displaying a vocabulary far beyond his years. As a bandleader, he leads the Sean Mason Quartet, a band assembled to play Sean’s original music, which has been described as highly melodic and infectious.
His fervour and arranging talent that makes instruments sound like no one else can. Essential.
paris-move.com
The genesis of Sean’s debut album ‘The Southern Suite’ came from an all-star quintet which Mason handpicked: Tony Glausi trumpet, Chris Lewis, tenor saxophone, Felix Moseholm bass, and Domo Branch drums. The melodies contained within ‘The Southern Suite’ are timeless; they are as fresh as anything out there, and yet they sound so familiar. They take their influence from the jazz tradition and possess an x-factor that puts them in their own category – a magical junction of the lowdown blues joint, the wooden pew of the Black Baptist church, and the glamour of a Broadway score: uptown elegance intermingled with downtown grit.
Just as we think we’re hearing something familiar; he can turn it in a different direction, while mostly exuding infectious joy along the way
(makingascene.org)
The music on ‘The Southern Suite’ is a rich evocation of life, including all its inherent contradictions and complexities — those of nuanced optimism and subtle melancholy.
