Mike Westbrook: The Westbrook Blake | Friday 19 November 2021 | Cadogan Hall
We celebrate Mike Westbrook’s 85th birthday year by bringing back to the concert hall what the IoS called “perhaps the greatest work in all British jazz”

‘Mike Westbrook’s settings are among the greatest British music of the century – bold, optimistic and inspiring’ (The Independent)

‘Mike Westbrook makes full use of his two striking vocalists, Kate Westbrook and Phil Minton. He finds music to match the ecstasy of I See Thy Form, the desolation of London Song, turns A Poison Tree into a blood‐curdling tango, and fashions a magnificent anthem for Let The Slave/The Price of Experience, Blake’s great paeans to freedom, dignity and compassion’ (The Wire)
