After a busy 2015 year, with concerts in New York and a tour in Israel, the guitarist Samuel Bonnet comes back to Upstairs to play music from his latest album « DaispoRapsodie" and some new compositions, this time in trio without drums, with his partners Fraser Hollins and Bruno Lamarche. An acoustic jazz, minimalist, at the crossroads of Latin and Oriental music.
"And that's a project that will delight jazz fans as much as world music fans."
"Indeed, it is a question of diasporas with arabisantes harmonic sounds, percussion in the style of Chano Dominguez, flamenco guitar style, in a really substantial whole."
"More than a pleasant album, this band has much to tell."
