Description
Exciting 11-Piece Jazz Band
Elftet has recently been featured in Jazzwise as 'who to watch 2018' so expect a very high energy evening!
Jonny Mansfield’s Elftet is an eleven-piece ensemble and was formed in September 2015. His original compositions are influenced by those of Vince Mendoza, Marius Neset and Stravinsky, as well as songwriters such as Norah Jones and James Taylor.
The larger ensemble offers a wide palette of textures and colours, from traditional four horn writing such as Duke Ellington to more contemporary classical music such as Ravel with the use of strings and vibraphone. The ensemble features some of the most exciting musicians in London, both students and graduates playing professionally around the world. Elftet has been played on BBC radio 3 and WBGO (New Yorks main jazz radio station) as well as teamed up with two animators from Cornwall and Australia to make a music video.
More recently, Elftet have been performing around the U.K., played in a masterclass with Dave Holland and received the Tebbutt Exhibition award for an outstanding performance as well as recording their debut album and organising a 20 date album release tour.

"Really beautiful music"
Jorge Rossy (Legendary Drummer)
“As a professional musician, I appreciate the high level of craft exhibited by Jonny Mansfield's Elftet. But more importantly, as a human being I bask in the beautiful feeling this music gives me. I will return to it again and again. Thank you, Jonny & Co.!"
Joe Locke (American Composer)
“Jonny Mansfield, whose incredible relaxed demeanour belied the quite mystifying way he managed to make this complex instrument sing."
