ABOUT THE SHOW 

MOSAIC is the eponymous debut release from a new jazz quartet performing a program of original compositions recorded ‘live’ at two concerts in Germany.  The album is co-produced by veteran Toronto drummer Terry Clarke and German vibraharpist Stefan Bauer, and MOSAIC will launch it via shows at Toronto's Jazz Bistro (Oct. 4 and 5), right here in Niagara @ The Hare Winery (Oct. 7), Hirut in Toronto (Oct. 8) and The Jazz Room in Kitchener/Waterloo (Nov. 6).

“What you will hear during the concert amounts to four generations of jazz players who had never met or played together previously – until this magical meeting of four like minds from all over the world, a ‘Mosaic’ if you will, of new friends talking to one another in this amazing universal language of jazz, and in doing so, discovering ‘the art of imperfection’ ... and the pure joy of being.” (Terry Clarke)

MOSAIC features:

Terry Clarke on Drums
Matthew Halpin on Tenor Saxophone
Matthias Akeo Nowak on Bass
Stefan Bauer on Vibraharp

Please note:  One of the NJF  JAZZ 4 the AGES youth performers will be the opening act for this performance.  Artist TBC

ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Terry Clarke

Terry Clarke was born in 1944, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He began displaying rhythmic aptitude at a very early age, and was just 12 years old when he began studying formally with noted drum teacher and author, Jim Blackley, Blackley was, and remains, a primary figure in Clarke’s continuing development as a musician.

In 1965, Clarke moved to San Francisco to work with the legendary saxophonist, John Handy III. He performed with Handy for the next two and a half years, during which time the Grammy nominated recording, Live at The Monterey Jazz Festival (Columbia-1966) was made. Following the John Handy experience (which included Terry’s long-time musical collaborator and friend, Don Thompson), Clarke began building his reputation for versatility by joining the world-famous pop vocal group, “The Fifth Dimension” at the height of their popularity, travelling and performed extensively with them throughout the U.S.A., Canada and Europe.
