THE JAMES CARTER ORGAN TRIO

With his powerful sound and his enormous energy saxophonist James Carter is quite rightfully recognized as one of the best jazz artists of his generation. His Organ Trio is his longest running band, with which he has already raised the Bimhuis roof several times. The trusty combination of tenor sax and Hammond Organ is transformed into a thrilling ride through 100 years of Afro-American music, from swing and bop to funk and rhythm-and-blues. ‘Non-stop excitement… the band sound huge, and charges ahead like a train’ (The Guardian).
