For this inaugural edition, the lineup brings together three legends of contemporary jazz: Brad Mehldau, Fred Hersch, and Gonzalo Rubalcaba. Each of them embodies a distinct vision of solo piano, between tradition and modernity, virtuosity and emotional depth. Their presence endows this festival with rare artistic stature, promising moments of exceptional intensity.
Beyond concerts, the festival affirms a genuine dedication to transmission. Each artist will offer a masterclass prior to their performance, giving the audience a privileged opportunity to explore their musical universe and artistic process. These exchange sessions will allow amateurs, students, and young musicians to enjoy direct contact with these jazz greats.
This dialogue between performance and pedagogy forms one of the pillars of this first edition, reinforcing the spirit of sharing that drives the festival. Thus, Festival Piano Solo Jazz is not merely a sequence of exceptional concerts: it is part of a living approach to passing on knowledge and musical passion.
A unique event that already stands as a highlight of the cultural season.
