JJJJJerome Ellis Plays Improvisations on Prayer-Inspired Longform Piano Work, 'Compline', In-Studio

JJJJJerome Ellis describes himself as “a stuttering, Afro-Caribbean composer, poet, and performer.” His last album, The Clearing, was a brilliant mix of sax, electronic music, and storytelling, featuring his own, stuttering voice. But his new project doesn’t involve speech – though it is inspired by prayer. It’s called Compline, named after the old evening prayers of Western Christianity, and it’s a series of contemplative works for solo piano. JJJJJerome Ellis plays improvisations on Compline, his new set of piano works, in-studio. Set list: Compline Improvisation No. 4, Compline Improvisation No. 2, Compline Improvisation No. 3 Compline in Nine Movements by JJJJJerome Ellis
