Morgan Roussel: Reborn

Contemporary jazz from one of France's finest composer-musicians.

After making a lasting impression with an exceptional solo career, acclaimed artist and composer Morgan Roussel is poised to return to the limelight with a project that matches his bold ambitions. This new work, hailed as the most accomplished of his career and profoundly universal, reflects a rare artistic daring. With outstanding technical mastery and a unique sensitivity, Morgan Roussel pushes beyond the usual boundaries of musical composition. On stage, accompanied by two musicians, he also steps into the role of orchestrator, steering this creation as a true artistic rebirth. As the musical heir to Michel Petrucciani, he now asserts a distinctive sound, marked more than ever by its intensity and individuality.

Tony Petrucciani: “I can say that he is a great artist who deserves to be recognized.”

A true concentrate of energy, passionate, lyrical, completely immersed in his art, Morgan Roussel puts his impressive technique at the service of stage performances of infectious intensity and feeling. It transports the listener and fascinates the viewer.
