1959: The Golden Year of Jazz

Neil Maya QuartetThis event has now finished

The band that offers the sounds of the cool jazz movement of the 50s and 60s and tells a story exploring a rich emotional landscape

The Neil Maya Quartet is one of the South West's most exciting and talented bands, whose aim is to find fresh, new sounds within the wide scope of jazz whilst staying accessible to everyone. The quartet's music is crisp, colourful, sassy, smooth, atmospheric, intricate, cool, very imaginative and always highly entertaining!

1959 is often considered an extremely influential year in the development of modern jazz, spawning some of the genre's finest albums of all times including Miles Davis' Kind of Blue and Dave Brubeck's Time Out. This project brings to life some of the best and most famous modern jazz recordings ever made.
