Glasgow Jazz Festival 2025 | Beyond Borders
Doors: 7.30pm Event starts: 8pm A premiere of a collaborative commission funded by PRS Foundation. In 2025, Serious' talent development programme Take Five will celebrate its twentieth edition, marked by a project bringing together four Take Five alumni to re-imagine the piece of music they wrote for Take Five and tour the work in Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. Lineup: Lulu Manning - Lulu Manning is a contemporary music artist embracing the unknown. They use sound, performance and improvisation as a means of discovery, connection, provocation and self-creation. Their love for the human voice led them into the world of jazz and improvisation, now journeying onwards to explore the world of experimental electronics and sounds of transcendent natures. Xhosa Cole - Xhosa Cole is one of the new rising stars of British Jazz. BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year 2018, Xhosa went on to win numerous awards and to appear onstage alongside jazz legends. Xhosa's exposure to players from a range of different traditions, combined with his strong connection to his inner-city community in Birmingham (UK), has helped to develop a fiercely unique and independent voice. Claire Victoria Roberts - Claire Victoria Roberts is a composer, vocalist and violinist, blurring the boundaries of jazz, classical and folk genres. The Welsh-born artist draws upon her diverse influences through improvised vocals, Celtic fiddle music, and lyrical jazz and classical styles. Conor McCauley - Belfast based drummer and improviser Conor McCauley is one third of Córas Trio - who are part of a new creative wave of musicians based in Belfast exploring how traditional music relates to the experience of the 21st century. Challenging ideas of cultural purism, they sweep the lines of contemporary musical practice, unafraid and unapologetic in their exploration of new ideas Serious Trust is supported by PRS Foundation's Beyond Borders
