A little bit about these two giants of the Jazz world...
Guitarist Alex Hutchings’ playing style has earned him an international following ever since his videos were released online with more than 10million views on his personal YT channel.
Most recently he completed a 145 date world tour with Steven Wilson in 33 countries. He has also toured extensively throughout the world as a clinician with brands such as Roland Boss and Laney From Japan, China, Europe, Russia and the U.S. Career highlight, 3 nights at the Royal Albert hall filmed in BluRay.
Here is a biography for the venue:
Born in Bristol into a musical family, John Pearce began learning the violin at the age of seven. By the age of eleven, his passion was clear and performances at the Royal Albert Hall and on BBC television helped galvanise his early career. Throughout his teenage years, he gave concerts in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, St. Martin in the Fields and St. John’s, Smith Square and received an award from the Former Parliamentary under Secretary of State for an outstanding contribution to music.
He was awarded a bursary at the Royal Academy of Music where he studied with Gyorgy Pauk, later continuing his studies privately with Nic Fallowfield and hungarian pedagogue Bela Katona.
Drawn inexorably to life as a jazz musician, John has performed with award winning artists such as saxophonist Andy Sheppard and pianist David Newton with whom he recorded his debut album in 2019 to great critical acclaim.
He has remained in demand as a classical soloist, giving duo recitals with pianist Motoki Hirai and performing concertos by Beethoven, Brahms and Elgar. John was also part of the Live Music Now scheme that was developed by Yehudi Menuhin as a musical outreach organisation and continues to give workshops and masterclasses.
More recent highlights include performances at Scarborough Jazz Festival, duo performances with David Newton and collaborations with guitarist Alex Hutchings.
