Conceived in Calcutta, bred in Bolton, matured in Manchester and now living in London, British-Asian clarinettist and composer Arun Ghosh makes a welcome return to Bristol, following a euphoric sell-out show at last year's Bristol Jazz Festival.
“Life-affirming music that transcends cultural barriers” Manchester Evening News
Ghosh, a two-time winner of: 'Jazz Instrumentalist of the Year' at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards (2014 & ‘18), has released four albums on Camoci Records.
Arun's musical vocabulary and vision reflects his rich geographical heritage, and has emerged as a leading light on UK and international jazz scenes, captivating audiences and critics with his passionate and dynamic performance style, eloquent musical expression and charismatic rock 'n' roll spirit.
His ensemble fluidly incorporates jazz, rock, folk, South-Asian and ambient influences.
Arun Ghosh's melodic outpourings and freewheeling improvisations become passionate, and intensely charged 'songs without words'.
Described by Ravi Shankar as a 'natural born improviser', the clarinettist is a renowned innovator of the modern Indo-Jazz style.
Arun Ghosh is also an established musical director and composer for theatre, dance, performance and radio. His first work was Storm by Lemn Sissay (Contact Theatre, 2002) and he has since worked on over 70 major productions.
His most recent work was as Musical Director and Composer for Lions and Tigers, at Shakespeare Globe, September 2017.
