*ETIENNE MBAPPÉ & "THE PROPHETS"

Exceptional concerts to end the year on a musical note. A major artist on the international jazz fusion scene, Etienne Mbappé has made a name for himself with his unique bass playing, which is fluid, melodic, and powerfully rhythmic, instantly recognizable thanks to his famous black silk gloves. A former collaborator with Joe Zawinul, John McLaughlin, and Salif Keïta, he continues to pursue his own personal musical approach with The Prophets, at the crossroads of jazz, African music, fusion, and contemporary improvisation. This ambitious project brings together exceptional musicians who form an ensemble with unique instrumentation, performing demanding music rich in texture, contrast, and emotion. The Prophets is not just a band, it is a vision: that of a jazz open to the world, both rooted in tradition and looking to the future. For this December 31, Etienne Mbappé invites us on a profound, festive, and inspiring musical journey, a vibrant way to enter 2026 under the sign of freedom, listening, and sharing.
