The Taurean Clarke Quartet
The Taurean Clarke Quartet features Jasmine Jones on Drums, Tim Ball on E. Bass, and Hayoun Lee on Piano. The music is a fusion of jazz, calypso, reggae, Latin, and even pop music. The quartet has played at the Toronto Annual Pan Jazz in the summer of 2005 and at the Toronto Downtown Jazz Festival in 2007; also, the quartet has performed at various jazz venues within Toronto including at the Black Swan, the Concord Café, the Trane Studio, and at the Central. The debut CD, “A Pannist’s Dream”, came out in December 2006. The CD features many compositions by Taurean’s influences in music, including Robert Greenidge, Sakesho, his father, and John Legend; not to mention, the CD features some of Taurean’s original compositions. The steelpan has grown from its grass roots in the Caribbean and has grown in popularity within Europe and the United States. This CD serves as a Canadian voice to the growth of the language of the steelpan worldwide.
