Après Ravel - Marco Sinopoli & Extradiction

Description

With Après Ravel, Marco Sinopoli presents a project where Maurice Ravel's music dialogues with contemporary jazz and improvisation, allowing the work to express itself freely. At the helm of the group Extradiction, Sinopoli explores the common ground between classical music and jazz, blending precise writing with improvisational freedom. Ravel stands as a natural reference: a major figure of the early 20th century, he unites tradition and modernity, impressionism and neoclassicism, folkloric influences and touches of jazz, with a writing style of great lightness.Extradiction's approach lets Ravel's breath, colors, and lines permeate the whole, resonating through modern jazz and contemporary polyphonies. Après Ravel is a living dialogue where the past echoes in the present, for those who see music as a space of freedom and encounter.
