About
Hard Bop, a musical current that was born at the end of the 40s as opposed to the West coast and cool jazz, sees the black musicians develop the harmonies of bop and cool jazz, precursor genres renewing the sound with a return to a jazz with some blues swing and gospel rhythm. In fact, its characteristics are the bluesy themes and rhythmic sections that become more homogeneous and agile than those of be bop. The result will be a more scratchy and harsh sound (hence the name “hard bop”) just like the desire of the musicians and their ethnicity to establish themselves.
The group will perform a repertoire of hard bop songs in reference to some of the main exponents of the past in the genre, Horace Silver, Hank Mobley, Freddy Hubbard...
