Perth International Jazz Festival: Tom Avgenicos & Jessica Carlton

Nice To Meet You: trumpeters Tom Avgenicos and Jessica Carlton play together for the first time.

First meetings rarely play out in public, but they will at this unique series of shows. Nice To Meet You brings together two world-class musicians who have never played together and puts them in front of an audience that can watch in wonder as they navigate this new musical relationship in real time.

In this performance, Australian trumpeters Tom Avgenicos and Jessica Carlton will take to the stage under these unique circumstances. Will it be duelling trumpets or a scintillating soundscape of haunting beauty? No-one will know until they hit the stage of the atmospheric and intimate Liberty Theatre. – and you could be among the only people to witness this premiere performance. Because there can never be another first time.
