On December 6th, jazz fans can tune into a unique trio performance by celebrated British saxophonist Tim Garland, legendary singer Norma Winstone and ECM recording artist Kit Downes at the piano.
Not only that, but the the artists will host a live Q&A at the end of the 45 minute set, which was beautifully filmed and streamed from Oak Gable Studios.

The encounters will be streamed throughout the winter season on a per-performance basis and purchasing a ticket also gives the viewer 7 days to re-watch.
