World Premiere of Jat Jazz Bolling Flamenco with Jorge Pardo at Sagunto Auditorium
The Auditorio Joaquín Rodrigo in Sagunto will host the world premiere of Jat Jazz Bolling Flamenco on 28 June at 20:30, a concert blending jazz, flamenco and classical music with a Valencian identity.
Sagunto City Council's Culture Department presents an unprecedented world premiere at the Auditorio Joaquín Rodrigo: Jat Jazz Bolling Flamenco, a production that interweaves jazz improvisation, flamenco rhythm and classical strings. The 75-minute programme pays tribute to French pianist Claude Bolling (1930–2020) and his landmark «Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio» (1975), which brought jazz-classical fusion to a global audience. Leading the cast is flautist Jorge Pardo — according to Wikipedia, the first Spanish musician to win Best European Jazz Musician from the French Académie du Jazz (2013) and recipient of Spain's Premio Nacional de Músicas Actuales (2015). He performs alongside Álex Conde on piano, Jordi Jiménez on drums, Maite Galarza on cello, Eva Fuster on violin, José Antonio Tello on saxophone and Manel Chust on percussion. Tickets cost €11 and are available through Servientradas. The auditorium is at Plaza Cronista Chabret, 6, according to Sagunto City Council.
