Clive Powell is a fervent Jazz Evangelist and Business Entrepreneur, who’s past work, has included teaching, lecturing, mentoring, music production, journalism and radio broadcasting. He has chaired seminars about jazz and appeared on BBC radio as a jazz commentator.
The inspiration for the Jazz Alive project came during his pioneering jazz radio show, “Nu Jazz Frontiers”, which showcased independent contemporary jazz music from the UK and around the globe. As a jazz radio broadcaster, Clive has established numerous contacts within the Jazz fraternity, including top artists, venues and broadcasters and has interviewed amongst others, legendary saxophonist Courtney Pine OBE, Composer and Broadcaster, Julian Joseph, presenter of BBC Radio 3’s Jazz Legends and US Jazz Funk star, Roy Ayers.
His vision for his current ‘Jazz Alive’ project is to make ”an important art form for us all, to become new, modern and attractive in the eyes of the today’s generation”
