#Jazzdedemain Xavier Belin
2024-10-23 21:00 - 23:00 | Le Baiser Salé, 58 rue des Lombards, Paris, 75001, France
Xavier Belin’s debut album, ‘Pitakpi’, has been hailed as ‘the new star of West Indian jazz’ by TSF Jazz and named ‘Revelation’ by Jazz Magazine.
Born into a mixed-race family, the bassist immersed himself in the Martinique Creole culture of his maternal grandfather, integrating Caribbean music into his conception of groove and rhythmic placement. L’Humanité describes him as ‘a gentle dynamiter of borders’. The terms ‘Caribbean jazz’ and ‘Creole jazz’, often used to define his music, are pleonasms for him, but nevertheless remain the most appropriate to describe his influences and his musical creation. ‘PLÉONASME’ is an opportunity to pay tribute to jazz standards from these Creole cultures, with some very talented musicians. For the past 15 years, #JazzDeDemain has been offering young artists the chance to perform on stage and hone their repertoire with an audience, through a series of monthly and bi-monthly residencies. It’s a promising and dynamic space where creativity and emulation know no bounds.

Baptiste Herbin Trio Ft André Ceccarelli at the Sunset
2024-10-31 20:30 - 22:00 | Sunside Sunset, 60 rue des Lombards, Paris, 75001
For this new album, Baptiste Herbin called on an artistic director for the first time, finding in Daniel Yvinec an enlightened and stimulating interlocutor who, after hearing him play a Django theme during a jam session, suggested the subject of this album. Together, they put together a repertoire that creates a fascinating universe around the guitarist: some of his emblematic compositions skilfully reworked, intoxicating musette waltzes, plus a choro dedicated to him by Herbin, a moving tribute by pianist John Lewis, and a stunning re-reading of ‘Night and Day’ in which Baptiste takes Django’s original solo harmonised for two saxophones with an elegance and naturalness that confirm the validity of the undertaking.

2024-11-06 20:30 - 2024-11-09 22:00 | Théâtre de l’Opprimé, 78 rue du Charolais, Paris, 75012, France
We, solitary souls of war weary, what do we bring together in this mechanics of sharing?
Four neighbours from different backgrounds get together one evening and try to find an ac- cord. Living in a society of normality raises questions about their relationship to space and time. Can the metronome, this instrument of measurement, write and give life to other temporalities to overcome the limits, the frontiers, of difference? The writing of Babouillec, a recognised autistic author, is singular. Deep, complex, we enter gradually, with humility, then a disturbing poetic breath rises and hop! She transports us elsewhere. On stage, two musicians converse with the characters who take us on this dizzying journey, supported by a unique piano-toypiano-glassharmonica/accordion orchestration. An exceptional theatrical opera by Babouillec and Stéphane Leach.
