Trio 'In the Moment' - Concert Extracts/ Extraits d'un concert (English below)


La nuit du 12 avril, nous avons joué aux ‘7 Lézards’, quelle fortune d’avoir eu plusieurs grands musiciens dans le public parmi lesquels saxophoniste Ricky Ford. Rasul (qui a joué avec lui dans ses formations) a lui présenté comme « ténor phénomène » Ecoutez- le.
