Jazz, tango et musique classiqueLe trio d'Alba Obert oscille entre musique classique, jazz et musique improvisée. En effet les trois musiciens qui le constitue ont pour point commun d'avoir étudié longuement la musique classique avant d'avoir mené carrière dans le jazz. Ils s'amusent donc aujourd'hui à en mêler les codes comme de grands compositeurs avant eux. C'est leurs oeuvres qui seront revisitées pour l'occasion, parmis lesquelles des pièces de Piazolla, de Jacob Gade mais aussi des pièces tiré de l'opéra "Porgy and Bess" de George Gershwin.JAZZICS — Jazz meets classicalLe 38Riv célèbre le dialogue entre jazz et musiques classiques. Relecture des grands répertoires, rencontres d’instruments venus d’époques différentes, improvisations libres : un rendez-vous où les frontières s’effacent au profit d’un langage commun.Pensée en hommage à Vincent Charbonnier, fondateur du 38Riv et contrebassiste passionné, cette programmation s’inscrit dans l’esprit du « Play Bach » de Jacques Loussier : curieuse, inventive, libre.
