Le Piano Dans L’Art Du Jazz

The Bal Blomet offers a new cycle of concerts entirely dedicated to jazz piano: an artist alone on stage at the piano tells us about his art, plays his music, freely evoking the jazz pianists of the past or the present who have been sources of inspiration. . The concert thus "swings" between music and jazz history where the pianist reveals how the piano of today integrates, aggregates and exceeds the influences of those who came before it.

he cycle is conceived in the same spirit as that of 1001 Nuits du Jazz, while being complementary: over the concerts, these back and forth between pianists of the past and the present draw the place and the complete history of the piano in jazz. , from its origins to the present day.

For this Piano concert in the art of Jazz, Le Bal Blomet welcomes Laurent de Wilde. New York-trained jazzman, pianist and composer, Laurent de Wilde is a master of tempo who has received multiple awards for his jazz and electro albums.
