Playing together in the Jack Singer Lobby (opening for Joey Alexander) Lorna, Richard Harding and Johnny Summers had such a great time they decided to do it again on May 1st bringing this trio together to play Lorna’s music. “I know it will sound beautiful as it always does in this space”.
With piano/vocals, sax and trumpet, the trio paints beautiful pictures of Lorna’s original music in a style somewhere between jazz, folk and classical.
