We are delighted to welcome Ancient Infinity Orchestra to Seven Arts for Saturday’s headline performance in the Chapel Allerton Arts Festival

“Melodic, warm and honest this is music that is happy to wear its heart on its sleeve. A  huge helping of peaceful beauty” Jamie Cullum

Ancient Infinity Orchestra is a 10-member jazz ensemble led by double-bassist and composer Ozzy Moysey, based in our bustling creative city of Leeds. Saxophonist Mathew Cliffe is a key member of the rotating line-up which includes drums, two bassists, keyboards, harp, violin, cello, two tenors, alto, oboe, flute and percussion.

Their music drinks deep from the well of spiritual jazz and is especially inspired by the soulful sounds of Pharoah Sanders, Alice and John Coltrane but also channels a certain Northern sensibility. Melodic, warm and honest this is music that is happy to wear its heart on its sleeve.

This is also communal music made by friends, which offers a deep celebration of togetherness and of music-making. It’s confidently deep music, moving and meditative, and Ozzy draws on philosophy and nature as well as musical inspirations to foster a focus on giving and sharing beautiful things with the listener.

The concert is part of the Chapel Allerton Arts Festival 2025, at Seven Arts, Chapel Allerton  Doors 7pm Music 7.30pm
