The Unpredictability of the Sea is out next week!
The new album from The very international Levy/Robson Quartet - and the fruit of a long-standing musical partnership between the highly acclaimed US
saxophonist Jed Levy and the
multi-award-winning UK-born guitarist Phil Robson. They met in 2017 in New York where Phil was living at the time. A few US and European tours later - they finally got together in a studio in Rome and recorded some great music for us. Penned by both Phil & Jed, and played masterfully by the quartet featuring the British bassist Mark Hodgson and the Italian drummer Roberto Gatto.
"(…) a quartet that values collective sound as much as individual expression. (...) a thoughtful meeting point between composition, improvisation and ensemble interplay." - Jazz in Ireland
We can't wait to see them on the road! Head over to #bandcamp and get your album copy now to have it signed at one of the gigs!

Books galore!
Robert Mitchell has been working with @80_days_publishing on sharing his music in print. And here they are, three books of pieces for left hand, left and right hand only, and one for both - this one inspired by a Japanese notion of various types of snow... guess which one is it? Now you can play it all!
There will be an opportunity to get your hands on these on 10th May in Hebden Bridge, at the Wainsgate Piano Weekend. Robert will sign them for you, for sure. With both hands.
That on top of the piece of Robert's, Amálie, featured in the ABRSM book of Jazz Piano pieces for grade 6 - 8 exams (published in Sept 2025), and the new poetry book - Balancing the Stones - Robert's 4th.
