Guildford Jazz: Iain Ballamy

Saxophonist, composer and ECM recording artist, is recognised as “a major international voice” (The Times) and listed in the BBC publication ‘100 Jazz Greats’. Luminous, freethinking, melodic, urbane, his work transcends genre and stereotype into an utterly original, always beautiful identity, all his own. “Ballamy…leaves you in absolute awe…the sheer virtuosity and sense of joy makes you feel like a kid about to step onto a twinkling, old-fashioned merry-go-round” – BBC
