ANDRÉ CECCARELLI RELEASE PARTY - WEST SIDE STORY

The energy of André Ceccarelli, drummer genius, arrives at the Club! It all began in 1997, when this virtuoso made history with a musical tidal wave. But the spark goes back much further: as a teenager, he discovered West Side Story at the cinema. The aesthetics, the passion and above all the mythical soundtrack of the film never left him. Decades later, this fascination gave birth to a masterpiece: his masterful interpretation of West Side Story, where earth-shattering swing and breathtaking velocity meet. Now he's back with a live version at Baiser Salé, recorded during previous concerts at the Club. West Side Story is much more than an album: it's an ode to passion.
With an international career that has taken him from American stages alongside Chick Corea (1979) to tours with Dee Dee Bridgewater (1987), via his TRIO SUD with Sylvain Luc and Jean-Marc Jafet, André Ceccarelli has recorded over 1000 albums! He has collaborated with Stan Getz, Charles Aznavour, Claude Nougaro, Brad Mehldau, Tina Turner... and many others.
For this exceptional project, the drummer has surrounded himself with exceptional talent: the virtuoso Rosario Giuliani on alto saxophone, the pianist Julian Oliver Mazzariello with his impeccable technique, Walter Ricci with his powerful, moving voice, and François Constantin, percussionist and master of rhythms.
This concert is a unique opportunity to experience live the energy and emotion of this cult project. Not to be missed!
