People often remark that Ben and Julian, individually, perform some of the most virtuosic and thrilling Jazz gigs in the UK today, and just for Winter Blues & Jazz they are here on the same stage together!
Ben Holder is the most acclaimed and exciting jazz violinist in the UK, and Julian Stringle "is probably the best clarinetist to emerge in British jazz for several decades" according to Sir John Dankworth. They are backed by the hard swinging BHQ - Jez Cook (guitar), Paul Jeffries (bass) and Nick Milward (drums).
