Green Hours presents:

ȘTEFAN STOIANOVICI QUARTET
An Ode to Trane & McCoy

Ștefan Stoianovici - piano
Andrei Frunză - sax
Lucas Contreras - bass
Cristi Florea - drums

An energetic yet thoughtful evening of modern jazz, build around the open spirit of music by the great John Coltrane and McCoy Tyner.
Join this quartet for a night where deep listening meets spontaneous reaction and the original arrangements blend seamlessly with resonant themes from the masters.

This lively band features musicians from the rising new generation, led by Romanian pianist and composer Ștefan Stoianovici. Active on Bucharest's jazz scene as well as in contemporary classical and cross-genre projects, his work bridges jazz improvisation, classical forms, and electronic production. He has composed for theater and media, alongside concert pieces for orchestra and jazz arrangements performed by the National Philharmonic and Radio Big Band.

He will be joined on stage by Andrei Frunză, an up-incoming student of the jazz department at the National University of Music who, despite being the youngest of the group, is always contributing with a fresh, compositional edge to his playing. Lucas Contreras, Colombian jazz guitarist, bassist and arranger who's been active on the Romanian scene for the past eight years, most notably with his Lucas Contreras Trio, Marsdellux, 7th Sense, with whom he recorded two albums.
Cristi Florea, an emerging voice in Bucharest's contemporary jazz and beyond, performing with bands like Zaharenco and Moon Chorizo.
