Sid Peacock's Surge in Session

Jez Nelson presents composer Sid Peacock and his Surge big band in an exclusive session.

Jez Nelson presents composer Sid Peacock and his Surge big band in an exclusive session for Jazz on 3. Over the last eight years the Birmingham-based group has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting large ensembles in British jazz. Peacock's kaleidoscopic music combines an avant-garde edge with party-like energy and is performed by strings and African percussion alongside more traditional big-band instruments. The session features new material and also includes a set for saxophone quartet and drums.

Also on the programme this week, a profile of the state of Latin jazz today.

Presenter: Jez Nelson
Producers: Russell Finch & Chris Elcombe.
