An OTO tribute to the life and works of the great Cecil Taylor, who passed away this April.

XT (Seymour Wright & Paul Abbott) & Pat Thomas perform Cecil's 1973 live album with Andrew Cyrille and Jimmy Lyons, "Akasakila"

Evie Ward will read poems for (and influenced by) Cecil Taylor and the late artist's own writings.

The event will start shortly after doors with a discussion between Val Wilmer and Richard Williams on Cecil's life and work.

Cecil's favourite drink - prosseco with a dump of lemon sorbet - will be served at the bar.
