Peirani / Parisien Project
Émile Parisien Sextett »Louise« / Vincent Peirani Trio »Jokers« / Duo Peirani/Parisien »Abrazo«
Tradition and future of jazz
Surely no other European nation has produced more internationally successful jazz musicians than France. The accordion player Vincent Peirani and the saxophonist Émile Parisien are the current protagonists of the scene – their illustrious forebears include Django Reinhardt, Stéphane Grappelli, Jean-Luc Ponty and Michel Petrucciani. In addition to their phenomenal programme as the »Abrazo« duo, these two virtuosos now, over several JazzNights, present their own bands: Peirani’s gritty and forceful trio »Jokers« and Parisien’s eclectic and electric sextet »Louise«.
