FRANÇOIS CONSTANTIN'S MONDAY JAM

May is coming, and so are the Caribbeans... and with them a series of jams where François Constantin summons up the ultimate in West Indian spirit and groove. On percussion and lead, François leads Léo Montana on piano, Felipe Cabrera on double bass and Lukmil Perez Herrera on drums in rhythms that dance, grooves that jump and improvisations that explode at every moment. Themes take flight, solos fly, and the musicians respond to each other with infectious, joyful energy. With guests you'll recognise from the first notes and surprises in every bar, this month promises to be hot, very hot. A one-hour concert to set the scene, then the JAM goes wild and the stage becomes a playground open to all, amateurs, pros and the curious. A festive, generous and resolutely lively evening where the West Indian groove asserts itself with strength and freedom.
