Hero as a Riddle - Martin Kershaw

We are currently delighted to be managing saxophonist and composer Martin Kershaw's new project. Hero as a Riddle is inspired by the artwork of Leith born artists Eduardo Paolozzi. Martin Kershaw has been based in Scotland for the past 9 years and is fully integrated into the Scottish Jazz Scene. He is a member of the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, runs his own bands, and is a composer, session musician and teacher. He is delighted to be amongst the first recipients of the Scottish Arts Council’s New Music award. In his career Martin has always tried to explore as many different styles as possible and this is reflected in the musicians he has worked with and written for. It will also be evident in the music he writes for this project. The concert performances for this project will include projected images of Paolozzi’s work.

Performances are scheduled for:
31 October in Aberdeen (tbc)
5 November, Eden Court Theatre, Inverness, Bookings: 01463 234 234
7 November, Queen's Hall Edinburgh Bookings: 0131 668 2019
