About the Event
As our contribution to the 2026 Southend Jazz Festival, we are pleased to present Testaments. The band is led by bass player Mark McQuillan, and features, unusually, a euphonium in the line up. They play intriguing, original material: their singer Rebecka Edlund- a Gold Medal winner at Trinity- makes a remarkable contribution, improvising in a distinctive and memorable style.
