AMG:
English pianist, organist and composer Michael Garrick studied Literature at London University before leading a trio and quartet in the late '50s. He mixed music and literature in the early '60s, doing more than 250 concerts that blended poetry and jazz. He formed a sextet in 1965, and also played with and did compositions for the Don Rendell/Ian Carr Quintet and Neil Ardley's New Jazz Orchestra. He made several recordings with his group in the '60s and early '70s, heading trios, quartet, quintets and septets. Garrick experimented with harpsichord in the mid-'60s, and explored jazz settings for liturgical works. He recorded an album of choral compositions in 1968, and in the '70s began to teach as well as play and compose. He founded The Travelling Jazz Faculty in 1979, while working in a trio in the late '70s. He played with Chris Hunter in the early '80s and with Dave Green's band since 1984. Garrick formed a sextet in 1983 and a big band in 1985.
