Cicle Coltrane i Miles Davis

Coltrane i Miles Davis series at Jamboree Jazz Club (Barcelona). Official tickets on entradas.com.

This jazz quartet is co-led by Casey-Joan Whyte and Dion Hoorn, completed by Masa Kamaguchi on bass and Stephen Keogh on drums. The group combines Whyte's violin with Hoorn's alto saxophone, which stands out for the precision of his lines and the energy with which he plays the instrument. Hoorn is also a bass player.

Whyte is a classical violin soloist and has performed violin concertos with orchestra on numerous occasions, including Saint-Saëns's Violin Concerto No. 3 and Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto. In jazz, he improvises with great technical and musical skill.

Both compose their own music, some of which will be performed at this session, although the main focus is on the music and spirit of John Coltrane. According to the presentation, music is not limited by time, geography or race, and the project reaches towards something that transcends divisions.
