| Compositions, jazz teinté d'Afrique et d'OrientNé à Nice, le pianiste Jo Kaiat est un voyageur musical dont l'œuvre est un véritable métissage de cultures. Son odyssée débute avec le jazz, mais il enrichit rapidement son style en s'inspirant de compositeurs classiques et impressionnistes comme Stravinsky et Messiaen. Après avoir perfectionné son art à Paris et à New York, il part à la rencontre de ses racines en Israël, où il étudie la composition classique. Sa quête le mène ensuite en Afrique, notamment au Mali, où il s'imprègne des musiques locales. Sa musique reflète cette dualité et ces rencontres, mêlant harmonies occidentales et rythmes africains et indiens. Que ce soit avec son trio de Bamako ou celui de Delhi, Jo Kaiat tisse des dialogues musicaux où se rencontrent jazz, blues et musiques traditionnelles, créant des ponts entre les cultures et les instruments. Son piano devient ainsi le cœur battant d'une exploration sans fin, oscillant entre la vitalité africaine et le calme mystique de l'Inde.
