VSOP tribute (jazz)

The artists: Thierry AMIOT – Trumpet Igor NASONOV – Trombone Yoann COMBE – Piano Pierre FAYOLE – Double bass Claude MENNILLO – Drums

A vibrant tribute performed by five musicians dedicated to the V.S.O.P. spirit, blending tradition, modernity and stage energy.

V.S.O.P. was an iconic American jazz quintet active between 1976 and 1980. It brought together five major figures of modern jazz: Herbie Hancock (piano), Wayne Shorter (saxophone), Tony Williams (drums), Freddie Hubbard (trumpet) and Ron Carter (double bass). With the exception of Freddie Hubbard, all had been members of Miles Davis's legendary quintet, giving this group unique historical and artistic depth.

The name V.S.O.P. is also a refined nod to a quality of cognac enjoyed by Herbie Hancock, symbolizing elegance and musical maturity.

An intense, lively and deeply jazzy evening!
