Kate Halsall, partner at Third Ear, a company who produce media events including Notes Inégales’s performances, explains why the ensemble are influenced by Miles Davis,
“Miles Davis is a musician who always looked for the new. His music evolved through many different influences. He combined elements of rock, world music and avant-garde music, and this was especially evident in music of the electric 70s period.
“The concert is a kind of homage to Miles Davis. The music will sometimes sound like him and sometimes go in other directions, but it is influenced by his free spirit.”

Ensemble take inspiration from jazz legend and Cardiff composers
Notes Inégales, a contemporary and jazz ensemble from London are performing …brew at Cardiff University, a concert influenced by Miles Davis’s music .
The group, who have been described as post-fusion, will be performing with composers and composer-performers at the concert influenced by Bitches Brew, Miles Davis’s experimental 1970 album.
Last month, composers from Cardiff University presented ‘postcards’ of ideas to Notes Inégales, who have workshopped the concepts in anticipation of the performance. Kate Halsall, partner at Third Ear who produce media events says, “Sometimes Davis would just write ideas on an envelope, even just graphically, then work them out with the musicians. This is how Notes Inégales work with the postcards.”
The results will certainly make an interesting evening’s listening.
