Get ready for an evening where Caribbean rhythms meet jazz in all its modernity. François Constantin takes the helm of a special Caribbean jazz jam session, with a first set that promises to be both intense and warm.

Préparez-vous à une soirée où les rythmes des Caraïbes viennent rencontrer le jazz dans toute sa modernité. François Constantin prend les commandes d’une jam session spéciale Jazz Caraïbes, avec un premier set qui promet d’être à la fois intense et chaleureux. Sur scène, il s’entoure de Ralph Lavital à la guitare, dont le jeu mêle élégance jazz et couleurs créoles, Michel Alibo à la basse, figure incontournable de la scène antillaise et fusion, et Arnaud Dolmen à la batterie, figure montante du jazz dont le jeu s’inspire des traditions du Gwoka tout en explorant les horizons du jazz contemporain. Ensemble, ils forment un quartet qui réinvente les musiques caribéennes à travers le prisme du jazz, mêlant la puissance des rythmes traditionnels à la liberté de l’improvisation. Cette rencontre musicale s’inscrit dans la lignée d’artistes majeurs qui ont su créer un pont entre héritage et innovation, comme Jacques Schwarz-Bart ou Andy Narell, ou encore Mario Canonge, fidèle artiste et ami cher au club, en résidence au Baser Salé depuis 19 ans ! Après cette première heure de concert, la scène s’ouvre à tous les musiciens présents, prêts à partager un moment de création collective et spontanée. Une invitation à vivre et faire vivre la vitalité d’une musique qui pulse et rassemble.
