FRANÇOIS CONSTANTIN'S MONDAY JAM

When the piano keys ignite and the bass hits just right, François Constantin's Monday Jam pays tribute to Hilton Ruiz! A New York pianist of genius, he has brought Afro-Cuban jazz and funk to life by collaborating with legends such as Tito Puente, Freddie Hubbard and Rahsaan Roland Kirk, combining impressive technique with irresistible groove. On stage, François Constantin on percussion and lead guitar leads Tommy Scott on piano, Gino Benja Chantoiseau on bass and Thomas Bellon on drums in an incredible collective energy. The themes dance, the solos explode and the spirit of Ruiz floats on every note. A one-hour concert to set the scene, then the JAM goes wild and the stage becomes a playground open to all, pros, amateurs and the curious. A lively, generous and resolutely funky evening, where the legacy of Hilton Ruiz comes alive at every moment.
