about

Fort de ses relectures King Size de classiques de John Coltrane, "A Love Supreme" et "Africa/Brass", Christophe Dal Sasso s’attaque aux "Three Quartets" de Chick Corea. Sous la conduite experte de l’arrangeur, son big band (Victoires du Jazz en 2020) revisite cet album mythique, avec en première ligne, dans le rôle de Michael Brecker, trois saxophonistes exceptionnels : David El-Malek, Stéphane Guillaume et Rick Margitza. Un hommage vivant et spectaculaire au pianiste disparu en 2021.
