Event information

“Paul is the most versatile musician I've ever met. Playing, directing, composing, arranging - you name it, Paul has it superbly covered. He seems to "get" music the way other
people breathe.” - Matthew Scott, Head of Music, National Theatre
“Mellow and melodic - refreshing ideas beautifully played." -Dave Gelly: Observer Paul Higgs is a highly accomplished and respected trumpet player with an impressive career in many fields, including performing, composing and arranging music for film, TV and theatre. After early life as a leading musician in NYJO, Paul was a Musical Director for many years for the National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company. Paul has established himself as a versatile musician, equally at home playing jazz, classical, or contemporary music.
His exceptional talent has seen him perform in major venues around the world, including the Royal Albert Hall, Wembley Arena, Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, the Berlin Concert Hall and St. Martin-in-the-Fields. He has played and recorded with many orchestras, including the BBC Philharmonic. In addition to his impressive orchestral work, Paul is also a highly sought-after solo performer and has released several critically acclaimed albums showcasing his virtuosic playing and impeccable musicianship.
Paul's biography is a wonderment.
Pavane is a musical form and at this gig, Paul's superb band. It is a delight to have a cellist again, so we are greatly looking forward to hearing Natalie. She, Andy, Chris, Jerome and George were with us in 2019, and it was an unmissable show.
