To celebrate the launch of BHM 2016 and his new album Nonagram, award winning alto-saxophonist and MC Soweto Kinch takes to the stage. A journey through the hidden world of abstraction, Nonagram draws inspiration from the incorporeal ideas of mathematics, through shifting time signatures, harmony and tonality that explores how music gives form to ideas that can’t be seen in the natural world. With a list of accolades and awards including a Mercury Prize nomination, two Urban Music Awards and two MOBO awards for Best Jazz Act, Soweto Kinch is a tour de force of the contemporary British jazz and hip hop scenes.
