Beezy and The Breeze
Beezy and The Breeze is a collaboration between Bota Zakir (Beezy) and James E. Kenward (The Breeze), in which they blend Kenward's poetry with Zakir's renditions of timeless piano classics and new compositions.
They've gone from strength to strength, collaborating on films and soundtracks with some of the most talented people working in poetry and film: from T.S. Eliot prize-winning poet Joelle Taylor - to Cannes Lion-winning cinematographer Jacob Proud.
Their concerts, featuring poetry interwoven with classical piano masterpieces and synchronized with film, can only be described as something special.
