David Gordon (piano), Paul Cavaciuti (drums) and Oli Hayhurst (d. bass)                 

Piano virtuoso David Gordon’s ‘Alexander Scriabin’s Ragtime Band’ is a celebration of the great Russian composer’s music seen through a kaleidoscope of jazz, Latin, and other influences. The CD was chosen as Mojo’s Jazz CD of 2016: ‘David Gordon is a musician of dazzling range.  Here he presents a playful, ingenious, irreverent and deeply respectful reimagining of the eccentric Russian composer’s oeuvre in which Scriabin’s music is filtered through Irving Berlin, foo-de-oh-do vocals, impressionistic jazz, ambient electro, samba, and whatever else occurs to the extravagantly resourceful pianist.’ – Mojo

The David Gordin Trio will perform at Lauderdale House on 24 May. The concert begins at 8.30pm, with doors opening at 8pm and the cafe open late into the evening selling drinks and snacks!
