What's on in Cutthorpe

Derbyshire, England

Cutthorpe is a quiet corner of Derbyshire where the hills feel like they are leaning in to hear what you're up to this weekend. With no big venues on our list right now, the real fun happens at local parks or community halls that pop up from time to time. It's perfect for a stroll if you fancy seeing how far the village cats can stretch before noon. The area keeps its own rhythm without needing a single headline event to carry the day. You might find a neighbour hosting a barbecue on their driveway or a band practising in someone's garden down the road. Near Here is just here to remind you that good times are often found right on your doorstep, even if there isn't a marquee in sight.

Neil Cowley Trio: Built on Bach

Built on Bach is an evening of Neil Cowley Trio music using Bach’s work as a ‘jumping off point’ for their iconic jazz sound. “He was the beginning of it all – the fundament to my technique and the core of my musicality”. Neil Cowley didn’t realise the profound impact that Johann Sebastian Bach had on his career until he stumbled upon his gravestone in Leipzig, Germany. Cowley is a man of duplicity, as he says, “the heart-felt jazz-soul-blues stuff: and the head, the classical” ( Interview with Andy Robson, Jazzwise) Formed in the late 2000s, the Neil Cowley Trio released their first studio album in June 2006, through Cowley’s own record label, Hide Inside Records. After the original album established Cowley as a dazzling pianist and stunning composer, he examined the possibilities of the acoustic piano trio and created a unique trademark sound that delivered powerful music of massive dynamic range and contrast. At the heart of their captivating live performances is Cowley’s marvellously English wit, mischievous humour and remarkable rapport with his audience. Having taken time for a solo career exploring electronics and contemporary classical music, Cowley came back to his trio and brought all he’d learned to develop their existing jazz style. Using Bach’s original pieces as a starting point, together with his bandmates Rex Horan (bass) and Evan Jenkins (drums), new compositions took place.
