Take the MOL Train: Yves Robert Trio (FR)
21:00
Opus Jazz Club
Yves Robert - trombone
Bruno Chevillon - double bass
Cyril Atef - drums
“Building on a remarkable technique and a fertile imagination, French trombonist Yves Robert has created a very personal universe which sometimes expands beyond the confines of jazz but never bows to fashion.” allmusic.com
Yves Robert, born in 1958, is an emblematic figure of French jazz. He has played with Daniel Humair, Loius Sclavis, Joëlle Leandre; and among his international partners we find McCoy Tyner, Paul Bley, John Zorn, Derek Bailey, Nguyên Lê, Steve Lacy and Dee Dee Bridgewater, just to name a few.
Robert studied flute and trombone at the Music Conservatory in Vichy and after finishing his studies he soon earned a growing reputation by playing in such well-known groups as Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath, Bernard Lubat's La Compagnie Lubat, and the first edition of the Orchestre National de Jazz in 1986. Soon he created his own projects as well, revealing the wide range of his musical ideas. His first project as a bandleader was a trio with bassist Bruno Chevillon and drummer Aaron Scott, formed in 1988. He reached real international fame through his highly acclaimed ECM releases, especially In Touch, released in 2002.
He’s had several groups and projects since, with music in the widest range, from electronica through hip-hop flavoured jazz to contemporary improvisations. Today Opus Jazz Club hosts his trio, formed in 2008 with two keystone French musicians beside him, playing modern jazz full with imagination, warmth, performed with striking technical skills. yvrobert.free.fr Tickets are available for 1500 HUF on the spot, in the national JEGYPONT network of Interticket and online at JEGY.HU
Seating at the Opus jazz Club can only be guaranteed in case of a table reservation.
