Saturday March 8th - Adrian Cox in Concert "Clarinet Fantasy"
Steyning Jazz Club,
The Steyning Centre, Fletchers Croft,
Steyning, Sussex



“Clarinet Fantasy” is the celebrated project & album from internationally acclaimed jazz clarinetist Adrian Cox featuring his Quintet with the addition of a String Quartet. “Clarinet Fantasy” was inspired by hearing the music of famed Ellington & Armstrong clarinetist Barney Bigard, that he recorded in the 40s with Roger Kay Strings (Fantasy for Clarinet). As with many of the jazz clarinet giants, an album with strings was a must. “Clarinet Fantasy” is Adrian’s offering and biggest to date. The show features original music composed by Cox all beautifully arranged by Philippe Maniez. Pieces from those Bigard recordings find their way into the concert tooIn Adrian’s words, “To make this album was a dream come true and having the chance to put this concert together to perform live brings me so much joy”

They featured on BBC Radio 2 live in session from BBC Maida Vale for The Jazz Show with Jamie Cullum on July 16th 2024

As a performer, Adrian is a leading exponent of the New Orleans clarinet and has an
unrivalled feel for the music he plays and his connection with an audience leaves a
lasting impression. Performances continue to see him touring world wide with some of the biggest names in jazz. In 2018, he was the clarinet choice alongside Giacomo Smith with Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra for the Benny Goodman celebrations both in London & New York.
