Makin’ Runs

Adrian Cox Trio (UK)

UK’s internationally acclaimed clarinettist Adrian Cox presents “Makin’ Runs” delving into the alternative ragtime repertoire from the early jazz era.


According to legend, “Makin’ Runs” is a tune attributed to Buddy Bolden, heard by Bunk Johnson in New Orleans. The phrase symbolises Bolden’s vision for inventive improvisations whilst never repeating himself.

Be entertained by this top-quality jazz trio as they craft tight yet dynamic arrangements that honour the music’s original intent, allowing ample room for improvisational fire.
