As a trumpeter whose unagitated, soulful playing exudes a thoughtful beauty, and as a composer and bandleader, Matthew Halsall has created his own rich sound world. A sound that draws on the heritage of British jazz, the spiritual jazz of Alice Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders, as well as influences from world music and electronic music and even modern art and architecture to create something entirely his own. Music that is rooted in the North of England but draws on global inspirations.
