Confluent Motion with Bill Gilliam, Contemporary Jazz

November 15 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm UTC-4

Confluent Motion with Bill Gilliam, Contemporary Jazz

Josh Grossman, the TD Toronto Jazz Festival 2017 artistic director described our music as: “While their exploration of free improvisation is impressive, what hooked me was the composing – their interesting melodies always create a home base from which the soloing departs and, ultimately, returns”.

Band members:

Bill Gilliam (piano), Kayla Milmine (soprano sax), Rob Clutton (bass), Joe Sorbara (drums)

Bill Gilliam is a composer / jazz pianist in his new quartet “Confluent Motion” with Kayla Milmine (soprano sax) and Rob Clutton (bass) and Joe Sorbara (drums).
