Mike Hatchard On The Radio 3 Piano

Mike Hatchard is possibly the only jazz pianist of note in the UK who also performs classical recitals. This performance he plays the music of J S Bach, Frederik Chopin and Ravel as well as pieces from Ellington, Jelly Roll Morton and his own imitable style of improvisation. St Barnabas is the perfect space in which to listen to sophisticated sounds expertly coaxed from a grand piano.
