A THEATRE in Reading is set to host its regular evening of live music.

Jazz at Progress sees jazz musicians take to the stage Progress Theatre in a monthly showcase of live performance.

This month, Gary Willcox will be performing with a project exploring the contribution of drummers to the world of jazz.

The set will include songs by Elvin Jones, Paul Motian, Kenny Clarke, Jack DeJohnette, and Bill Stewart, among others, covering bebop, modal, and 90’s ‘nubop’.

Mr Willcox will be joined as he performs on drums by Chris Batchelor, who will play trumpet, Oli Hayhurst on bass, Julian Siegel on saxaphones, and Gareth Williams on piano.

Jazz at Progress is set to take place at Progress Theatre, The Mount, on Friday, February 3, from 7.30pm until 10pm.
