What's on in Over Newbold

Derbyshire, England

Over Newbold sits quietly in Derbyshire where the pace is slower than a snail on a rainy Tuesday but the local scene never sleeps. We find our entertainment tucked away near the village green or popping up at community halls that know how to keep things lively without needing a stadium. The pub down the lane hosts its own quiz nights while school discos light up the Friday evening for anyone with a spare ticket and a good pair of shoes. Near Here keeps track of what is on so you do not have to waste time hunting through paper flyers or calling around to ask if the band has arrived yet.

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.
