Saxophonist/composer MARK LOCKHEART has written a major new work for instrumental soloists and orchestra, which continues and develops musical concepts that he has been working with for many years. Days on Earth will receive its premiere at Milton Court on 9 January in a performance with Liam Noble, Tom Herbert, Seb Rochford, John Parricelli and the Guildhall Studio Orchestra. The album of the work will be released on Edition Records on 18 January. An eight-piece ensemble will be touring a revised version of the work later in 2019. In this podcast interview, Mark Lockheart explains the background to this substantial new work to Sebastian:
