ISAIAS ALVES QUINTET

An exceptional concert this evening in tribute to one of the greatest geniuses of Brazilian music: HERMETO PASCOAL by Brazilian drummer Isaías Alves. Driven by a strong artistic vision, the project highlightsIsaias's interpretive excellence, whose rhythmic mastery, musical sensitivity and expressive depth add a new dimension to the Hermétien universe. With pianist Leo Montana, who impresses with his fine touch, the richness of his harmonic vocabulary and a remarkable ability to navigate between sophisticated writing and improvisation, Amina Mezaache on flute, renowned for the richness of her expression between jazz and world music, sax player Benoit Crauste, appreciated for his lyricism and improvised creativity, and double bass player Darcy Miranda, a rhythmic mainstay with a deep, warm sound, the quintet celebrates the freedom of Hermétien's music.

The quintet celebrates the creative freedom, harmonic complexity and rhythmic power characteristic of this musical universe, through moments of intense interaction, collective improvisation and dynamic contrasts. The concert promises an immersive and sensory experience, where virtuosity and daring meet - an evening dedicated to the inventiveness and transformative energy of Brazilian music in resonance with the Paris jazz scene.
