Jazz FM’s Classic Album Playback series in partnership with the Hampstead Jazz Club.
CLAIRE MARTIN recreates songs from the classic album 'Here's to Life' by Shirley Horn (1992).
This evening will form two episodes of Jazz FM’s Classic Album playback series, that will broadcast on the station throughout October and in early November on Sunday nights at 9pm.
Hosted by broadcaster Emma B, each week the programme concentrates on a pivotal classic jazz album that has stood the test of time. Recorded in front of a discerning audience at the Hampstead Jazz Club, a panel led by music journalist Jonathan Wingate will play tracks from the album and discuss their opinions on why the album as a collection of tracks worked to create the classic work we know of today. This will add a layer of knowledge and understanding that will feed the inquisitive mind of the audience.
Following the playback, Claire will re-create a number of tracks from the classic album, performing a mini-set, which you can hear as part of the broadcast.
CLAIRE MARTIN OBE
Claire Martin OBE became a professional singer at 19 and two years later realised her dream of singing at Ronnie Scott’s legendary jazz club in London Soho. Signed to the prestigious Glasgow based Linn Records in 1990, Claire has since released 22 CDs with the label, collaborating with musical luminaries including Martin Taylor, John Martyn, Stephane Grappelli, Kenny Barron, Richard Rodney Bennett and Jim Mullen on many of these recordings.
Claire has performed worldwide with her trio and, until his death in 2012, worked extensively with the celebrated composer and pianist Sir Richard Rodney Bennett in a cabaret duo setting both in England and the US where they played to sell-out houses at venues including the prestigious Algonquin Hotel in New York City.
Claire appears as a featured soloist with the Halle Orchestra, the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, the RTE Concert Orchestra, the Royal Northern Sinfonia, the BBC Big Band and the BBC Concert Orchestra. Claire co-presented BBC Radio 3’s flagship jazz program ‘Jazz Line Up’ from 2000 to 2017 and interviewed many of her musical heroes such as Pat Metheny and the late Michael Brecker.
Her 2009 CD 'A Modern Art' prompted Jazz Times USA to claim: “She ranks among the four or five finest female jazz vocalists on the planet”.
In 2022 Claire will record with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Scott Dunn to celebrate the music of Sir Richard Rodney Bennett. The Times cites Claire as “Our finest jazz vocalist”.
