BRAD MEHLDAU TRIO

Jazz evening

A true jack-of-all-trades, Brad Mehldau is one of the most fascinating musical minds of his generation. After two solo albums devoted to Bach and Fauré, this lover of the Beatles as well as Bill Evans and Herbie Hancock is back for a trio concert that will be bursting with inventiveness.

Programme

Concert without interval 

Brad Mehldau is a lover of the keyboard in the broadest sense of the term, and his music crosses so many different influences that it’s hard to put a label on it. This stylistic versatility and ability to blend the most varied musical currents is nonetheless what gives the musician the ability to bring together such a wide audience, well beyond the jazz or so-called classical music. There’s something of Bill Evans in the impressionist colours of his most meditative tracks, something of Keith Jarrett in the little grain of madness that colours some of his improvisations, something of Johann Sebastian Bach in his way of structuring a piece in a mould of implacable logic, and even something of Radiohead in his talent for understanding his time and expressing a discourse that is always relevant to his epoch and his contemporaries.  

He is joined here by Jorge Rossy, with whom Brad Mehldau will be celebrating 30 years on stage in 2025, and by Felix Moseholm, the young Danish prodigy who has played alongside Wynton Marsalis.
