JAZZNIGHTS BY JAZZKOLLEKTIV

20:00 Uhr Opener Band: GERARD CHUMILLA QUINTET

Gerard Chumilla leads this quintet made up of promising young jazz artists from different parts of Europe. Born in Barcelona 24 years ago, Chumilla currently lives in Basel, Switzerland, where he has been a follower of Mark Turner, Brad Mehldau, Larry Grenadier, Ambrose Akinmusire and other celebrities. In recent years, he has devoted himself to developing his own sound and style, which have convinced figures like Larry Grenadier and Jordi Rossy, who for a long time have been Brad Mehldau’s rhythm section in his trio. Rossy and Grenadier have agreed to work on Gerard Chumilla’s forthcoming first album. At the Jamboree, the Catalan saxophonist will perform his own music and a selection of standards. He will be accompanied by a group which, like Chumilla himself, represents the best of the new jazz talents: the Frenchman Noé Sécula, the Belgian Eliott Knuets and the Spaniards Lluís Pérez-Villegas and Miquel Casanova.

Gerard Chumilla sax, Eliott Knuets guitar, Noé Sécula piano, Lluis Perez-Villegas drums, Miquel Casanova double bass.
