We have had many fantastic experiences with Melissa Aldana and her band. Her concerts have been incredibly swinging; fresh and playful classic jazz with modern edges and incredible technique. At this concert, her fifth visit to the Jazz Scene, she comes with music from her latest album Filin, the warmest ballad album we have heard in a very long time! With the sound of John Coltrane's classic LP Ballads from 1963 as her guiding star, Aldana has gathered or rewritten beautiful music at a slow tempo. The way the overtones of the tenor saxophone comfort a sore melody is masterful, Aldana's sonic presence moves through the room and fills it with shifting colors. The music is written by South American composers: Salvador Levi, Cesar Portillo de la Luz, Marta Valdez, samba innovator Cartola and not least Hermeto Pascoal, his Little Church is here a beautiful tribute to the genius's life work. Melissa Aldana has made a record with enough power to become a classic - intimacy and warmth you just want more of. Good to know: * Age limit 18+ * Doors open 7pm
