Les Chisnall Trio

Following on from our first steps into jazz at the 2013 Festival, here we have one of the UK’s best jazz pianists, Les Chisnall – strong melodies, interesting harmonies and classical music influences all abound in music which is open, refreshing, warm and lyrical – a delight to listen to. He’s joined by bassist Steve Berry, who lives just around the corner from Westholme, and Marek Dorcik, originally from Slovakia, but now based in Manchester. Les also tutors at the RNCM, Leeds College of Music and Chethams, alongside Steve.
