Live Music

Reuben Goldmark Trio

Doors 7:45 PM, Music 8:30 PM - 2 sets of music Line-up: Reuben Goldmark - Piano Freddie Jensen - Double bass Jonah Evans - Drum kit About: Reuben Goldmark returns to the Vortex with his trio to premiere a brand new set of original compositions. Over the past four years, the band has developed a unique approach to the classic piano trio format. Lyrical melodies and hooks playfully dance over high-tech beats and grooves that seem to have a life of their own — constantly in flux and transforming at will. Their sound is compact and focused, with the leader’s unmistakable piano touch in the foreground. United as a single entity, they navigate intricate polyrhythms and metric modulations with such ease that the complexity fades into the periphery, revealing music filled with emotion and rooted in joy. Reuben was a finalist in the esteemed BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year competition and his compositions were featured on BBC 4 and BBC Radio 3. He was awarded the Dankworth Prize for Jazz Composition in both 2022 and 2023, making him the first ever back-to-back recipient of the award. As a performer, he has graced numerous prestigious venues across the UK, including select appearances at the Queen Elizabeth Hall as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival, Snape Maltings as part of the Aldeburgh Festival and Saffron Hall. Reuben is a Worshipful Company of Musicians’ Young Artist. He recorded his debut album in April 2025.

Her latest CD ‘On The Wing Of A Dragonfly’ was released in May 2026 and today’s performance will feature material from the album as well as some new tunes and arrangements. …”Immensely likeable music…distinctive and wholehearted, the trio as one” Jazzwise (editor’s choice) **** April 2026 …”terrific latest release by Kate Williams, one of the British jazz scene’s most eloquent and best-kept secrets.” John Fordham, Uk Jazz News, April 2026 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrAUeI0K27s

More about Park Corner

Berkshire, England

Park Corner sits quietly in Berkshire with a charm that doesn't need shouting about to be noticed. The Spencer Denney Centre has been hosting local talent for years while the library runs sessions that keep the little ones occupied without costing a penny. It's a place where you can find a good laugh or a quiet read depending on which room you wander into. Pub quizzes and craft fairs pop up through the week to keep things interesting for everyone in the village. Near Here pulls it all into one place so you aren't stuck checking a dozen websites on a Sunday evening. Come along, grab a coffee, and see what's on this weekend.
