Jess Gillam Trio
Jess Gillam – Saxophone
Sam Becker – Double Bass
Zeynep Özsuca – Piano
Jess Gillam is celebrated as a leading figure of the saxophone. With her electrifying performances, vibrant stage presence and magnetic personality, the ‘uniquely mercurial’ (The Times) Jess Gillam has been invited to play on the world’s major stages since becoming the youngest ever soloist to perform at the Last Night of the Proms and was hailed for her ‘effortless virtuosity and limitless expressiveness’ (Arts Desk). Equally at home behind the microphone, Gillam has shattered glass ceilings as the youngest ever presenter for BBC Radio 3 with her award-winning weekly show, This Classical Life.
Jess is joined by Sam Becker and Zeynep Özsuca as the Jess Gillam Trio make their debut at the Manchester Middays.
