Craig Taborn & Peter Evans (USA)

Craig Taborn: piano
Peter Evans: trumpet

‘Stylistic pliability, the ability to construct improvisations with wide-ranging logic, a tenacious exploratory attitude, and a superfine technique make Craig Taborn a leading figure in contemporary music’. (Giuseppe Segala, All About Jazz)
‘Peter Evans has now become a worldwide reference in research music and free improvisation. If anyone has gone beyond the known technical limits of the trumpet, it is he.’ (Flavio Zanuttini, The new noise)
These two quick quotes only give a vague idea of one of the most anticipated concerts in the Carambolage season.

Taborn and Evans are truly a kind of quintessential sound of modern jazz improvisation. Contrasting messages capable of completing melodies in open contrast with heavy dynamics that then flow into seas of sweetness.

Speed and slowness that recall the world of contemporary classical music but with the added emotional impulse and pulsations typical of the jazz world tout-court.
A concert of infinite richness for those who love to research and be transported into the modern flow of sound by two true number ones of today's music. If you are able to bring your attention and curiosity with you, you will leave this concert richer and will have discovered a new vocabulary and a new palette of colours.

Date: Monday 10th March 2025 at the Piccolo Teatro Carambolage starting at 20.00h.
