Jeremy Dumont 5tet feat. Godwin Louis

Submitted by jazz4you on Wed, 03/20/2024 - 13:26

With his new compositions, Jérémy Dumont is increasingly establishing himself as an inventive creator. The wide range of styles, coupled with the support of his remarkable collaborators, aligns perfectly with the spirit of his arrangements, meeting all expectations. The music encompasses a range of atmospheres, from covers of mainstream standards to vibrant, original compositions, resulting in contemporary jazz that is inspired, accessible, and festive. It's groovy, akin to hard bop, featuring intense harmonies, rich tonality, and sumptuous improvisation.
