JazzClub/Think Big/Landing from Chicago in Normandy

It will be an evening of wild, exuberant and energetic experimentation, an experience born from the clash of personalities of the French freejaz scene and the Chicago avant-garde. The European half of the quartet consists of double bassist Thibault Cellier and saxophonist Raphaël Quenehen, who have collaborated for more than two decades, among others in the artistic collective Les Vibrants Défricheurs and in the band Papanosh. The American part of the band includes drummer, composer, activist and AACM member Mike Reed and trumpeter and multi-instrumentalist Ben LaMar Gay. They find a common musical language in improvisation combining the artistic traditions of their environments.
