About
At Le Melville, jazz is sometimes played far from the courtroom! This unique sextet brings together five lawyers passionate about music and a professional saxophonist, all driven by the same love for swing, improvisation, and the joy of sharing the stage.
Trading their files for sheet music for one evening, these musicians bring their worlds together through a warm and generous jazz repertoire, where camaraderie, rhythm, and spontaneity take center stage.
At the crossroads of discipline and freedom, the sextet demonstrates that jazz and the art of pleading share much in common: the sense of listening, the art of improvisation, and the talent to convince... or rather, to seduce!
An evening full of swing, energy, and good humor!
