Review of Riverside Arts Jazz - Tommaso Starace

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

A c***king way to end 2024 with the excellent and very engaging ex-pat Italian altoist, Tommaso Starace, who revealed that he was trying out his "new" 1939 vintage sax. He was slightly concerned about its sound in the low registers, but it sounded just fine to us. Thank goodness, though, that he skilfully avoided any kind of schmaltzy Christmas ballads (too many elsewhere already) and turned in a fine selection of mid- to up-tempo classics, including not one but two associated with the recently departed Benny Golson: Killer Joe and Whisper Not, Jive Samba, Sonny Rollins' Pent-up House and Cedar Walton's Firm Roots. Other highlights were Kenny Barron's Voyage and a lovely duet between Terence Collie and Tommaso on The Nearness of You to open the second set. We were also treated to a terrific cameo from everyone's favourite scat-singing drummer, Winston Clifford. I think it was during Just Friends, but my memory isn't what it used to be ! Great support too from stalwart bassist Richard Sadler who Tommaso thought might have some connection with Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles !

Riverside Arts Centre venue information

The Riverside Arts Centre (RAC) provides a well equipped venue for the visual and performing arts as well as being a co-ordinating body for individuals and amateur and professional groups to promote such activities in its premises. It is run in its entirety by voluntary effort. Its main source of income is rental fees for the use of its facilities.

RAC is owned by Spelthorne Borough Council and is leased to The Riverside Arts Centre Ltd. The Studio - formerly the village branch of Barclays Bank - is owned by The Trustees. RAC was opened in April 1982 after 5 years toil converting a near derelict building into a viable theatre space. The Studio was purchased in 2003 and opened in November 2006.
