Zoe Gilby with Andy Champion - 'The Music of Duke Ellington’
Zoe Gilby (Voice)
Andy Champion (Double Bass)
Duke Ellington is undeniably one of the most prominent musical icons of the 20th century. Voice and Double Bass duo Zoe Gilby and Andy Champion will be celebrating the importance of his contribution to jazz by performing a special selection of his compositions, rearranged for this dynamic duo.
Winner of Parliamentary Jazz Awards Jazz Vocalist Of The Year 2019
�Zoë has teamed up with her husband, the innovative and powerful double bassist Andy Champion for a voice and double bass duo. This exceptional pairing create an electrifying soundscape in this beautifully integrated music. Breathing fresh life into the familiar as well as heading off to the unchartered. The well-honed duo know each other by heart. Their approach is bold, hypnotic and mesmerizing. Interacting and infiltrating one another’s sound. Removing the boundaries, exploring space and time with just voice and double bass. Inspired by the legendary Sheila Jordan, this exciting project has been taking audiences by storm throughout the UK and Europe and highlights her ingenuity in interpreting a lyric.
“the instinctive interplay between the two performers and the opportunity it gives Zoe Gilby to display her vocal improvisational skills and subtle lyrical interpretations of well-chosen songs and Andy Champion to foreground all the possibilities of his double bass”
“a fantastic gig with both performers demonstrating their dexterous versatility with a great selection of songs, changing tempo and tone, improvising and embellishing at will”
