Trumpeter and composer Paul Higgs’ new album Pavane is out now in the US, with a UK release later this week.

Pavane is an expression of Paul’s belief that genre boundaries shouldn’t be restrictive and combines the freedom of jazz with the rich sonorities of classical music. It presents pieces in song form in a classical style with an emphasis on melody and counterpoint. An exquisitely formed eleven-track collection, it boasts influences that range from Elgar to Latin Bass.

Pavane’s UK release is next Thursday 30^th January and will be available from Amazon and iTunes. For more information, please see Paul’s website: www.paulhiggs.com
