JEAN-PHILIPPE SCALI QUINTET

2016

Distribution: Gaya Music Production

Low Down is a roaring quintet with an original new repertoire, written by Jean Philippe Scali.

This music is animated by a beat that immediately seizes the listener! Definitely blues, it is a tribute to the deep sound that I wish to explore, firmly anchored in the work of Mingus and Ellington.

Line-up: Jean Philippe Scali (baritone saxophone), Glenn Ferris (trombone), Frédéric Nardin (piano, Hammond B3 organ, Fender Rhodes), Samuel Hubert (bass), and Donald Kontomanou (drums)
