Ivo Neame’s ‘Dodeka’ is a unique new band formed in 2022. Following the outbreak of the pandemic in 2020, he decided to record new music for a virtual big band. In May 2020, Help Musicians and Arts Council England supported him in multitracking a big band album – this eventually became Glimpses of Truth.

Thanks to music technology and the internet, Neame produced a critically acclaimed work during a tough time. As it was possible to record musicians from their homes anywhere in the world, he also decided to involve US jazz stars Gilad Hekselman and Ingrid Jensen on the record.
