Program notes

Monty Alexander lights up the stage of the New Morning jazz club in Paris, offering a stirring reminder of why he is still one of the most inspiring figures in modern jazz!

Accompanied by Luke Sellick on double bass and Jason Brown on drums, the Jamaican pianist displays the full range of his artistry: an irresistible blend of American swing, bop elegance, and Caribbean rhythms deeply rooted in his musical identity. The trio's incredible rapport creates a vibrant and generous atmosphere, celebrating the greatness of contemporary jazz alongside a rapt audience. With a career spanning over sixty years, Monty Alexander remains a creative force who never ceases to amaze us.
