CARTE BLANCHE FOR THOMAS ENHCO
What if Bach met jazz? Friday, February 12 at the Cité de la musique - Philharmonie de Paris
Philharmonie de Paris (Paris 19th)
About
From classical to jazz, Thomas Enhco plays without borders.
What if Bach, Shostakovich, and jazz could meet on the same stage?
A pianist, composer, and improviser, Thomas Enhco loves to blur the lines between styles. For this carte blanche, he imagines a program where classical music dialogues with the sounds of today, featuring piano, marimba, violin, and orchestra.
From Bach to Shostakovich, including his own compositions, Thomas Enhco offers an evening full of contrasts: sometimes poetic, sometimes energetic, always surprising. With percussionist Vassilena Serafimova and violinist Deborah Nemtanu, he introduces music that does not choose between classical, jazz, and improvisation... but enjoys mixing them.
🎹 A concert to discover that classical music can also break the rules.
