Claire Martin OBE writes ‘I’m always very excited when Imogen Ryall releases a new album and I’ve been eagerly awaiting this new collaboration with Brighton-based trumpeter Chris Coull.’ ‘On the Roof’ is a breathtaking musical journey paying tribute to the music of the legendary US trumpeter Tom Harrell. The album features 8 of Harrell’s intricate and varied compositions, enhanced by Imogen’s intelligent and evocative lyrics that breathe new life into each piece and turn them effortlessly into songs.
Widely considered an important voice on the UK jazz scene Imogen Ryall has performed at many of the major UK jazz venues and festivals as well as with some of the most highly regarded musicians around. This is Imogen’s third album with Rubicon Jazz.
