Jazz Finland Live

In this new creation, flautist and composer Naïssam Jalal has invited the Brazilian pianist Leonardo Montana and the Franco-Armenian double bass player Claude Tchamitchian to play in search of the Invisible; at the crossroad of extra-western, traditional mystic music and modal jazz. The transcendental trio will be touring in Finland, Estonia and Latvia, starting from Helsinki on April 14th and ending in Tallinn at Jazzkaar festival on April 25th.

The silence has a central place while the rhythm always leads towards a state of trance in a repetitive and hypnotic shape. Sometimes the voice comes to help the other instruments to get in touch with the Invisible. Hamid Drake was invited on four titles of the double album released on March 1st  2019. The album won the « Victoire du Jazz 2019 » the highest jazz award in France and has received critical and public acclaim since its release. Born in 2017 the trio has given numerous concerts in France and Europe.  Quest of the Invisible has made its American debut at the Winter Jazz Festival in New York in January 2020.
