Peter King Memorial Sax Summit: Mornington Lockett, Rachael Cohen, Alex Clarke, Fraser Smith & the Barry Green Trio @ 606 Club
Saturday 15th November 2025 – 9:00 pm Music Charge: £25.00 Book Now Tonight we will be hosting an evening dedicated to one of the greatest saxophonists the UK has ever produced, the brilliant alto player Peter King, who very sadly passed away in 2020. He led our Sax Summit, which features a remarkable 4-sax front line, for well over a decade and so we have renamed this evening in his honour. A regular at the Club Mornington Lockett , who performed here with Peter for many years, is one of the UK’s leading tenor sax players. A former member of the Ronnie Scott quintet he has worked with singer Sarah Jane Morris and the Tracey’s – Stan and Clark – and was the driving force behind the brilliant “Celebrating the Jazz Couriers” quintet. A beautifully fluent and inventive alto saxophonist Rachael Cohen is widely considered one or the leading voices of her generation. The first female artist to be signed to Whirlwind Records she is a respected composer and arranger and has been listed in American magazine ‘Downbeat’ as a “Rising Star” on three separate occasions. A 2020 BBC Young Jazz Musician of the Year competition finalist, winner of the Rising Star category in the 2019 British Jazz Awards and three-time Parliamentary Jazz Award nominee, Alex Clarke ’s tasteful, melodic style and warm, round, tone fit perfectly with the straight-ahead jazz standard and bebop repertoire she performs. With a focus on swing Fraser Smith channels the sound and language of the “big US Tenor men” and has built a significant reputation on the UK scene. Including work alongside the likes of US stars Harry Allen and Chuck Redd his latest album was streamed 1.3 million times. This stunning lineup will be accompanied by one of the UK’s leading jazz pianists Barry Green (Bobby Watson, Us3) & his trio. “Lockett…plays with tremendous fluency and drive” Evening Standard; “Cohen’s…playing…astonishing coherence and flow” UK Jazz News; “Clarke is a rising star” Jazzwise;“Smith…confident and…very hard swinging” UK Jazz News
