Report from Cambridge International Jazz Festival 2019 : Ant Law Quartet* at Caius
Versus attempting a full gig-review (as for Julia Hülsmann Quartet* at the same venue on Friday), the unavailability of light to make detailed review-notes largely precludes it, so what follows the personnel- and set-lists is some impressions of the gig
Other personnel (alphabetical) :
* Mike Chillingworth ~ tnr
* Tom Farmer ~ db
* James Maddren ~ perc
* Ivo Neame ~ pf
First set :
1. Two Bridges
2. Harvest
3. ? ?
4. Laurvin Glaslowe
5. Pure Imagination
6. Aquilinus
Second set :
7. Entanglement
8. Our Church
9. A to Z
10. Waltz
11. Credit
