Synopsis : Finn Peters is a leading flute and sax player in the UK today. Coming from a long line of musicians (tracing back to the 1600's!) he first started playing the flute at five, and has been perfecting his art ever since. 

After spending his teens practicing non-stop, he studied musicology at Durham University, then completed a post-graduate course at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Su-Ling, his debut release for Babel records, is receiving a great deal of airplay on BBC Radio 1, 2, 3 and 1xtra.

Moving to London in 1994 exposed Finn to many disparate musical styles, from which he has created an individual and genre-spanning musical language.

This explorative nature has led him to work with such pioneers as Frederick Rzewski, Giovanni Hidalgo, DJ Spinna and Sam Rivers, to name a few.

All the while he has been developing his own productions, writing and playing and forging a new musical alloy from this melting pot of traditions.

This will be Finn’s first trip to Malaysia, and he'll be accompanied by the Michael Veerapen Band.

Part of Alexis Bistro's International Jazz Series.
