#Résidence Nathan Mollet

There is something deeply personal, almost introspective, in Nathan Mollet's music. A subtle, sensitive style, shaped over the years at the intersection of intuition and meticulous work. His projects, the result of long hours of research and piano playing, are born from a simple but essential desire: to create a sincere connection with the listener, to invite them into a world where each note recounts an emotion, a moment, a breath.
Trained by the great masters of jazz—Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Hank Jones—and influenced by contemporary artists such as Pat Metheny, Avishai Cohen, Ben Wendel, Tigran Hamasyan, and Pedro Martins, Nathan has developed a musical language that is both rooted in tradition and resolutely forward-looking.
Ever since childhood, he improvised, invented loops, and played with silences and surprises. The piano has become for him a space of total freedom, capable of expressing both gentleness and impetus, contemplation and audacity. With an ever-expanding palette of nuances, he explores varied emotional territories, leaving room for the unexpected, the sensitive, and the alive.
In addition to jazz, his compositions now extend to other aesthetics: pop, electronic music, folk, and alternative. His inspirations are multiple—from the Beatles to Radiohead, via Nick Drake, Saya Gray, Sampha, and Louis Cole—and enrich a unique, hybrid, and poetic sound universe.
During his residency at Baiser Salé, Nathan will be surrounded by artists who will punctuate each concert with new colors. More than a simple series of dates, this residency is designed as a creative laboratory, a testing ground where sharing and emotion are at the heart of each performance.
