Part of the Newark Jazz Festival 2010.

A world-class performer, Tim’s diverse output and skill as a collaborator with others has surprised and captivated listeners for many years, making him harder to define or pin down. As well as his many works for orchestra and various ensembles, jazz listeners have also been used to him tearing around at Ronnie Scott’s club with Chick Corea and others.

Tim will bring the best out of Derby’s Hot House Band – Jon Eno’s acclaimed youth project and East Midlands Young Jazz Awards winning jazz orchestra – with an exciting collaboration commissioned especially for the Festival. Tim is no stranger to working in churches and cathedrals with his Acoustic Triangles project. Expect to swing in style!

Garland was the 2006 “Musician Of The Year” in the UK’s parliamentary Jazz Society Vote and winner of BBC Jazz award for innovation, for his Lighthouse project and the highly acclaimed CD “If The Sea Replied.”

"Garland is quietly becoming one of the most important British jazz musicians in years" – Jazzwise
"Garland has always sounded special, blessed with a weighty tone that makes you switch on and want to listen, he is creative at speed and swings with momentum and grace" – Time Out
