For the third 'Chris Sharkey presents...' night at Chapel FM, Chris will be showcasing new work that he has created with the Chapel FM Jazz Collective.

Chris Sharkey is musician-in-residence at Chapel FM, creating new work as part of an Arts Council funded project. During his time at Chapel FM he will also be making a series of presentations with other artists about his work.

The first instalment in October focused on background and jazz history, SHARKEY II considered rhythm, repertoire and the potential role of improvisation in modern life.

As always, there will be a Q&A and discussion along the way so be ready to chime in—the more the merrier!
