An Evening With Matthew Halsall at The Trinity Centre

A gig held at The Trinity Centre on Tuesday 2nd November. The event starts at 20:00.


Matthew Halsall is a trumpeter whose unflashy, soulful playing radiates a thoughtful beauty and a composer and band-leader.

Halsall has created his own rich sound world that draws on the heritage of British jazz, the spiritual jazz of Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders, as well as world music and electronica influences, to create something uniquely his own.

Playing with his newly hand-picked ensemble of Manchester’s finest young musicians, Halsall performs music from his latest album Salute To The Sun, his first since 2015, which draws on such sources of inspiration as ecology and harmony with nature that have continued to inspire Halsall through the years.
