Corey Mwamba presents a performance from Beck Hunters, recorded at this year鈥檚 Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music.

Corey Mwamba presents a performance from Beck Hunters recorded specially for Freeness at this year鈥檚 Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music. Over the past five years, Beck Hunters have established themselves as a fearless and playful trio, and for this festival set the usual line-up of Mick Beck (saxophone, bassoon), Anton Hunter (guitar) and Johnny Hunter (drums) is augmented to a quintet with the addition of pianist Laura Cole and bass player John Pope.

The Newcastle Festival of Jazz and Improvised Music, which took place over the first weekend of October, is an eagerly-anticipated annual celebration of improvised music from around the world. Since 2017, it has showcased new talent alongside established names on the scene, and elsewhere in the show, Corey selects highlights from other artists who featured at this year鈥檚 festival.
