Bonington favourite Gilad Atzmon will be featuring music from his latest and highly acclaimed album Refuge. Expect hard-hitting, urban electro-acoustic jazz from Atzmon's superb ensemble. Combining bebop with middle-eastern influences, new music and electronica, the Orient House Ensemble creates a musical landscape like no other outfit around on the UK jazz scene today.
"It's not where you take things from that matters, but where you take them to, and the Orient House Ensemble is finding its voice in an increasingly subtle blend of East and West, that's brutal and beautiful."
Kathryn Shackleton, BBC Music Magazine
