Jazz on a Summer's Day is a unique collection of stylish jazz arrangements and original compositions for solo piano. It conveys the many sides of summer through swing, blues, samba, calypso, and folk, and draws inspiration from jazz artists including Oscar Peterson, Bill Evans, Grover Washington Jr, and Sonny Rollins. The author's credentials, as a celebrated jazz pianist and composer, guarantee a perfect introduction to jazz and to sounding like the best.
Multi-award-winning jazz pianist and composer, Nikki Iles, was a founder member of the innovative Creative Jazz Orchestra. She has a busy freelance career, with over 25 CDs recorded over three decades, and has been described as the Heroine of British Jazz. Composition remains a major part of her musical life with commissions from The London Sinfonietta, the International Society of Jazz Composers and Arrangers, and The National Youth Jazz Orchestra. With a parallel career as a much loved and respected teacher, Nikki is also Professor of Jazz Piano at the Royal Academy of Music and The Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Her recent awards include the Ivors Academy Gold Badge for exceptional contribution to music (2019), the Jazz Education award, and The Parliamentary Jazz Award (2019), as well as Jazz Ensemble of the Year for the Nikki Iles Big Band in the Parliamentary Jazz Awards (2020).
