| Jazz, standardsThrough this trio project, Italian guitarist Katia Schiavone pays tribute to American guitarist Mary Osborne, a major figure in bebop and a pioneer who has long remained in the shadow of jazz history. Active on the New York scene in the 1940s and 1950s, Osborne made her mark with incisive energy, great improvisational freedom, and powerful swing, alongside musicians such as Art Tatum, Dizzy Gillespie, Billie Holiday, etc.Surrounded by Fabien Marcoz on double bass and Philippe Soirat on drums, Katia Schiavone revisits this legacy through a repertoire inspired by bebop, while placing it in a broader approach of rediscovering past female jazz musicians, often overlooked despite their essential role in the evolution of this music.This concert is both a tribute and an act of transmission: to make these voices heard, reactivate their creative power, and affirm, in the present, a musical and artistic continuity carried by the trio....

| Jazz, standardsÀ travers ce projet en trio, la guitariste italienne Katia Schiavone rend femmage à la guitariste américaine Mary Osborne, figure majeure du bebop et pionnière trop longtemps restée dans l’ombre de l’histoire du jazz. Active sur la scène new-yorkaise des années 1940 et 1950, Osborne a marqué son époque par une énergie incisive, une grande liberté d’improvisation et un swing puissant, aux côtés de musiciens tels qu’Art Tatum, Dizzy Gillespie, Billie Holiday etc.Entourée de Fabien Marcoz à la contrebasse et Philippe Soirat à la batterie, Katia Schiavone revisite cet héritage à travers un répertoire inspiré du bebop, tout en l’inscrivant dans une démarche plus large de redécouverte des musiciennes de jazz du passé, souvent invisibilisées malgré leur rôle essentiel dans l’évolution de cette musique.Ce concert est à la fois un femmage et un acte de transmission : faire entendre ces voix, réactiver leur force créative et affirmer, dans le présent, une continuité musicale et artistique portée par le trio.
