LA JAM DU LUNDI - François Constantin

An evening entirely dedicated to blues, the seminal genre that influenced all popular music of the 20th century, from jazz to rock, soul, and funk. Born in the cotton fields of the southern United States, blues is at once a cry of rebellion, a song of sorrow, and a space for freedom and improvisation. Legendary figures such as Robert Johnson, Bessie Smith, Muddy Waters, and Howlin' Wolf laid the foundations for this musical language, which went on to inspire entire generations of artists, from Jimi Hendrix to Etta James, Eric Clapton, Janis Joplin, and Nina Simone. This week, François Constantin takes us on a journey with a Special Blues edition, a vibrant tribute to the essence of this visceral music, which has nourished all the great revolutions of jazz, rock, and soul. To bring this raw and universal emotion to life, an exceptional team has been assembled: A first set full of energy, feeling, and freedom, followed by a jam session open to all musicians eager to bring the music to life.

More than just a concert, the jam session is an opportunity to discover outstanding musicians and see them have fun improvising together. #LaJamDeTOUSLesJazz is a concert set and a jam session of improvised musical encounters: the most convivial way to make music!
