Mambo Jambo and The Sensational Stroke Ensemble
2024-11-27 10:30 - 13:00 | Albemarle Music Centre, 60 Ferensway, Hull, HU2 8LN, United Kingdom
We’re really pleased to have been invited to deliver workshops in this fantastic project, The Sensational Stroke Ensemble, which is a group that enables Stroke survivors and their friends and relatives to meet together socially, to work creatively and experimentally as an ensemble to compose and perform music, plus playing and singing songs together with a bit of informal songwriting thrown in too! In some sessions we’ve been experimenting and having fun with boomwhackers, New Orleans rubboards, cha cha bells, vibraslaps and more. We’ve lead four sessions so far, and it’s been really positive for everyone involved (including us!). (Previously the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra had been leading the group, and at that time the project was known as Strokestra.) The sessions take place at The Albemarle Centre, Hull, in partnership with Hull Music Hub.

This time they’re joined by violinist extraordinaire, Joe ‘Hotbow’ Martin for spontaneous, joyful music making and a romp across genres.; Some may remember Joe from when he was fronting the legendary Hull band Ain’t Misbehavin’ and leading them to perform at the Montreux Jazz Festival.
Mambo Jambo are known locally for their lively, uplifting shows that whisk the audience off on shared musical adventures; They also captivate audiences with their wonderful array of instruments; Pete on guitar, cuban traditional guitar (tres), banjo, accordion, vocals & percussion, and Frankie on sax, flute clarinet, guitar, vocals. She’ll be bringing a few unusual instruments to the concert as well!.
When they get together with Joe the three of them really take off, with infectious energy! Expect all sorts of musical wildness, a mash-up of some swing, some Latin American, Cajun, Eastern European, some folky Bluegrass… plus two of their original pieces that the three of them wrote together for last year’s ‘Out Of The Box’ and Hull Jazz Festival.
“An absolute treat and a delight, and you can tell all three of them feel the same way about playing together!”
“Refreshing and Uplifting”
