Event information
Ideasthesia is a quintet project bringing together rising star improvisers led by saxophonist / composer George Garford.
Exploring the intersections between contemporary jazz and free improvisation, the quintet has built a reputation for high-energy performances and an imaginative band sound.
Garford’s writing seeks to balance the ensemble’s collective freedom with a detailed personal aesthetic; navigating tightly woven structures, expansive textural landscapes and unfolding narratives with a sense of urgency.
Ideasthesia – a phenomenon in which activations of concepts evoke perception-like experiences.
