This live album is far more than a simple encounter: it’s an artistic manifesto in which the excellence of European jazz is brilliantly expressed. Led by saxophonist Maxime Bender, one of the most promising talents of his generation, four exceptional musicians came together to create a defining moment in their careers. Alongside Bender are two living legends: pianist Joachim Kühn, a key figure and visionary of modern jazz; and Daniel Humair, an iconic drummer whose career spans several decades of musical history. The quartet is completed by the brilliant double bass player Stéphane Kerecki, known for his subtle playing and unrivalled musicality. This original project transcends generations and borders to offer jazz that is bold, free and intense. Far from being a simple tribute, the album celebrates the dialogue between the masters and their heirs, in an atmosphere of exchange, respect and mutual inspiration. A rare moment, a prestigious cast, a palpable musical intensity; this live album is already seen as an essential reference for all lovers of demanding European jazz.
