I am very passionate about music, but as I never learnt to play an instrument myself, I have chosen to "participate" by photographing artists and bands whenever I get the chance to.
I love jazz, and whenever I get the chance to see Herbie Hancock, I am there!
This image was taken at the Barbican in September 2006, when Herbie played with Bobby Hutcherson on the vibes.

In the 1980's I had the opportunity to see Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy in Neuweid, Germany, a small leisure centre had been converted to a festival venue for the weekend. Many jazz greats played there, and I was hooked!
It was an honour and fantastic experience to listen to and see Gil Scott-Heron at Womad in 2010, inspiring and moving at the same time. His energy and conviction shone through.
