Marking the 60th anniversary of its release, this concert is a reimagining of one of the most iconic jazz albums of all time, Dave Brubeck’s “Time Out”

Released in 1959, Time Out was the first jazz album to sell a million copies. Its exploration of unusual time signatures began a trend which continues to this day. It featured the hit single 'Take Five', written by Paul Desmond, as well as other Brubeck classics such as "Blue Rondo A La Turk" and the ethereal "Strange Meadow Lark", creating a sound that defined the era.

Pianist Nick Tomalin has performed at many prestigious jazz venues in the UK, both with his own bands and as sideman for some of the country’s leading jazz musicians including Jim Mullen, Don Weller and Alan Barnes.

Taking the role of Paul Desmond, Seattle born Allison Neale is unique on the UK jazz scene, widely regarded as one of the foremost exponents of the West Coast style today.

“Allison Neale plays the alto saxophone with a tone so light and airy it positively melts at the edges” Dave Gelly, Observer
