#Jazzdedemain Aoï Trio

In a poetic breath, the AOÏ trio, Boris Lamérand, Fumie Hihara, and Alexandra Lanciaux, weaves a vibrant bridge between tradition and modernity, offering an intimate musical adventure where each instrument reveals its own light.

A violinist with inventive impulses and a vibrant touch, Boris Lamérand opens the doors to a rare sonic journey with his trio AOÏ and the “Koto Project.” His career, woven with jazz, classical music, and influences from elsewhere, paints a landscape where audacity meets poetry, where each note seems to seek a broader horizon.

At his side, Fumie Hihara, an inspired guardian of the koto, makes the thousand-year-old strings of her instrument resonate like a breath of silk. Under her fingers, the koto becomes a bridge of light: it elevates the melodies, soothes the rhythms, and unfolds a contemplative softness that delicately links East and West.

Alexandra Lanciaux's deep and sensitive double bass anchors this musical journey. Her playing, full of nuance and warmth, provides a vibrant foundation, a breath that supports and envelops the trio's dialogues. She adds discreet pulsations, an organic texture that naturally completes this soundscape.

Together, these three artists forge a path where ancient traditions meet modern impulses, jazz improvisation meets classical heritage. The Koto Project becomes a showcase for listening and emotion, where each instrument whispers its own legend. An intimate and luminous interlude, to be experienced to the full at Le Baiser Salé.
