Pierre de Surgères Trio
"The Senghor - Centre Culturel d'Etterbeek, in collaboration with JM Brussels, introduces children and adults alike to improvisation, starting from very simple foundations and using the concept of the musical idea. Not only jazz, but music in general is based on this method of improvisation.
History and understanding of Jazz
Jean-Pol Schroeder, a specialist in jazz and in particular the history of this syncopated music in Belgium, set up the Maison du Jazz de Liège in 1994 with Jean-Marie Peterken, a centre for documentation, entertainment and promotion of jazz in Belgium. For many years now, Jean-Pol Schroeder has been working with the Jazz Station [...].
River Jazz Night: Fabian Fiorini
Both a signature and the climax of the festival, Night crystallises a carte blanche of three times and three spaces. Fabian Fiorini is no accident. Talented, chameleonic, prolific and crazy enough to rise to the challenge of putting together three projects as different as they are complementary, Fabian Fiorini's portrait is a vivid snapshot [...].
Aleph Quintet
At the cultural crossroads between the world of North African oriental music and that of jazz improvisation, Aleph's music is also influenced by Sufi culture and its close link between music and trance. The group is a motley mix of nationalities and backgrounds: Tunisians, Belgians and French. The five musicians [...]
Raphaëlle Brochet & Philippe Aerts Duo
Raphaëlle Brochet and Philippe Aerts blur the lines of the usual repertoire of their instruments, voice and double bass, and concentrate on creating a singular soundscape, filled with their respective experiences. Their music is a cocktail of Carnatic music (from southern India), Bulgarian songs, bebop colours, jazz, and a touch of jazz.
Géraud Portal New Quartet
Géraud Portal, a musician with an atypical background, never ceases to surprise. As a child, he taught himself to play the electric bass for the first time. Later, dividing his time between lumberjack during the week and jazz musician at the weekend, he gradually carved out a place for himself in the French artistic scene. [...]

MikMâäk + Marc Ducret
In today's musical landscape, whether in Belgium or abroad, it's hard to find an ensemble that so overturns the codes of the traditional big band. Somewhere between a big band, an improvisation collective and an avant-garde jazz ensemble, MikMâäk is synonymous with organised chaos, with incredible solo interventions flowing organically into liberating compositions... all [...].
Toine Thys Orlando
A variety of styles and tones, subtle rhythms, a music where joy and melancholy rub shoulders at every moment. Played with ease, this music invites you to travel into a poetic universe, and opens the door to wide open spaces. The drums are light and airy, and the double bass, at the centre, breathes as if it's [...]
Vaiana Stone
After a few years of recharging his batteries and reflecting on life's essential values, Pierre Vaiana returns from Sicily with his pockets full of melodious, tender jazz, bursting with sunshine and compositions that seem to be blown by water, wind and mountains. Serene, mature, dense, disconcerting, majestic jazz. A jazz that lets you hear the [...]
