John Law presents Re-Creations: creative arrangements of some of the world’s most familiar music. The idea is simple: they take the best-known tunes from all genres – jazz, pop, indie, rock, folk, classical sometimes – and re-create, finding new arrangements and new angles; sometimes just spontaneously re-inventing them.

But no matter how free and inventive they get, no matter how complex and intricate the arrangements become, audiences everywhere always feel part of the creative process, because they know the tune and recognise it when it comes back.

This is music played by highly skilled musicians.  Audiences don’t feel excluded. They are integral to the evening and the whole experience.

Featuring UK Parliamentary Jazz Award Winner saxophonist Sam Crockatt, Danish bass player and composer Henrik Jensen and a new young firebrand on the UK jazz drumming scene: Alex Goodyear

“This was the best, and most dynamic, of the Re-Creations shows that I’ve seen. Law is a brilliant technician and his own playing was superb, as was that of his very able colleagues.” – The Jazz Man
