About this event
After many adventures, in piano or electro-jazz duos, sometimes it feels good to come back to classics, especially in the Bill Evans – Chick Corea – Keith Jarrett line. Liège-based pianist Igor Gehenot goes back to the roots with this new augmented trio project, while bringing brand new compositions. Born out of complicité, collective maturity is clearly this project’s strength, the kind of maturity that opens up the door to shared pleasure, for musicians, as much as for audiences drinking it all up. Trust Igor Gehenot for anything that is post-bob-related lyricism and swing: his touch is both delicate and firm. Iron hand clad in a velvet glove, the pianist commits body and soul with passion and concentration. Relying on the careful and stimulating rhythm of the trio, the wind instruments can put all their tested technique to the service of skin-deep emotions. It’s irresistible.
