Program notes
In 2016, at the Jazz à Ramatuelle Festival, Kyle Eastwood and his faithful quintet revisit memorable standards while performing some of their original compositions. Son of actor Clint Eastwood, who provided him with a solid film and jazz education, Kyle began his career as a composer for his father's film The Rookie, released in 1990. His style is the fruit of this fertile mixture and shines through in all its splendor throughout this memorable performance.
A realistic cosmopolitanism emerges from this concert. It includes Arabian-themed pieces such as Marrakech, or Japanese ones, such as the score from the film Letters from Iwo Jima, composed by Kyle Eastwood himself, adding to the cinematic modernism of this concert, replete with subtle and enigmatic harmonies.
This is just one of over 500 amazing jazz concerts available on medici.tv!
