Recognized by his peers in Europe and the United States as one of the most brilliant and influential musicians of his generation, Filipino-born American saxophonist Jon Irabagon has enjoyed a career as essential as it is confidential since the turn of the millennium. His quartet brings together, around his tenor saxophone, three of the most decisive personalities on New York's avant-garde jazz scene, including the breathtaking pianist Matt Mitchell. Passing from modernist neo-hard bop to Coltranian post-free with constantly surprising formal virtuosity, his universe is both experimental and deeply rooted in jazz. Jon Irabagon's music is as playful as it is exhilarating, undeniably opening up new horizons for contemporary jazz.
