European jazz is slowly moving away from the American mainstream style, retaining all its important values, yet creating an independent improvisational musical language. The Párniczky Quartet was created in 2016 with the aim to play the reworkings of the bandleader from Béla Bartók's pieces.

The current repertoire includes equally elements of chamber jazz, contemporary classical and folk music.

„Bartók Electrified is an excellent fresh and modern jazz project built on one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. Do not miss it!" SK Jazz

VINCENT COURTOIS / ROBIN FINCKER / DANIEL ERDMANN [FR]

LINES FOR LIONS

Vincent Courtois - cello
Daniel Erdmann - tenor saxophone
Robin Fincker - clarinet and tenor saxophone

After twelve years of existence, five repertoires and five albums, including the famous "Love of Life" recorded in California, a tour of the United States, dozens of concerts all over Europe, and still the same enthusiasm for getting together, the Courtois/Erdmann/Fincker trio has decided to confront its shared experience, its obvious complicity and above all its unique sound, with its natural reminiscences of West-Coast jazz.

Was it a simple desire to explore or a need to pay tribute? Exorcising old demons or the need to get closer to unfulfilled loves?

With their new creation, Lines for lions, the unmissable trio continue to dig, intimately and as a single musician, the furrow of their own language, nourished by their multiple influences.
