West Coast is a style of jazz developped in Los Angeles and San
Francisco in the 50s, often seen as a subgenre of cool jazz, which
consisted of a calmer style than bebop or hard bop.
Gerry Mulligan / Chet Baker Quartet (one of the most famous
« pianoless » quartet), the Lee Konitz / Warne Marsh / Lennie
Tristano association or the Four Brothers (with Stan Getz and Zoot
Sims) have had a strong influence on the jazz scene for decades.
Thomas Champagne and Adrien Volant will cross their horns and
present you a repertoire of great classic compositions of that
time !
A pianoless quartet needs a strong rhythm section !
You will be pleased by the creativity, the strongness and the
interaction of Hendrik Vanattenhoven and Jan de Haas!
