Over the course of five albums, Manchester based trumpeter, composer, arranger and band-leader Matthew Halsall
has carved out a niche for himself on the UK music scene as one of it's
brightest talents. His languid, soulful music has won friends from
Jamie Cullum and Gilles Peterson to Jazz FM and Mojo as well as an
ever-growing international following. His new album Into Forever,
puts the spotlight on Halsall the composer, arranger and producer.
Halsall draws on a diverse range of influences from Alice Coltrane,
Dorothy Ashby, Phil Cohran and Leon Thomas to the more contemporary
sounds of The Cinematic Orchestra, Max Richter and Nils Frahm to deliver
his most complete recording to date.
