The father and son combination of saxophone playing Sulzmanns Stan and Matthew in a quintet setting are among the highlights this autumn at the Hampstead Jazz Club - the subject of today's podcast. Tenor titan Stan, 73, a UK jazz icon, is a huge influence on such next generation pianists as the Methenyian Gwilym Simcock who early in his own career played with Stan in Neon.
Hear Stan in the saxophone section combining with Kenny Wheeler on the sublime 'See Horse' led off by pianist John Horler on Wheeler 1992 Ah Um classic, Kayak.
We loved Stan's work too more recently last year surfacing along with Swiss grands fromages Vein and the Mon Ami Ensemble whose members included Matthew.
Matthew plays soprano and alto sax and studied at the Royal Academy of Music.
