#Lescaribéennesdemai19 Jorge Vistel Quartet

Craftsman of exciting blends between Afro-Cuban rhythmic traditions and the most creative jazz, trumpeter Jorge Vistel, recently arrived in Paris, has been causing a sensation since he took his trumpet to the clubs of the capital. With his distinctive sound, the one who collaborated with the greats Benny Golson, David Murray, Lewis Nash and the late Roy Hargrove brilliantly fuses contemporary jazz with Afro-Cuban essence. The energy that emanates is irresistible and reflects the rhythmic and melodic richness of his roots. A wizard of claves, Jorge Vistel belongs to a generation of Cuban musicians for whom, far from any nostalgia, the traditions of their native island constitute a most sophisticated rhythmic breeding ground, which they attempt to assimilate to the most contemporary concepts of jazz. It is therefore not surprising to learn that he studied with Steve Coleman and that Greg Osby, ten years ago, released one of his albums on his own label. To accompany him in his wanderings, he surrounds himself with three musicians whose talent is as brilliant as it is resolutely avant-garde. Jozef Dumoulin on piano, often cited for his pioneering work with the Fender Rhodes (legendary keyboard of the 70s) and the first to present a solo program with this instrument, captured on the album "A Fender Rhodes Solo", which has become cult since its release 10 years ago. On bass, Jean-Philippe Morel, one of the most inventive and fiery improvisers on the French scene, who has lost count of his collaborations with national and international figures. Originally from Cannes, drummer Stephane Adsuar decided to train in the United States, notably with Terri Lyne Carrington and Ralph Peterson, before moving to Paris where the modernity of his playing and the precision of his drumming did not fail to make people talk about him in the musical world.
