Living legend of jazz and for many, along with Herbie Hancock and Ahmad Jamal, Kenny Barron is one of the three most important pianists still active from the golden age of jazz, and one of the main pianists of post-bop.

The list of great figures with whom he has worked is endless; to name a few: Yusef Lateef, Joe Henderson, Freddie Hubbard, Buddy Rich, Chet Baker, Benny Carter, Stan Getz, Stanley Turrentine or Philly Joe Jones.

We are eager to see him again, because he has not been here since the V edition of the Festival in 2002. Presenting his fantastic album “Book of Intuition”, this consummate master of the piano trio offers us one of the most expected concerts of the XXIV edition of the Festival.

Kenny Barron: piano.
Kiyoshi Kitagawa: double-bass.
Willie Jones III: drums.
