ABOUT Friday & Saturday night...
Rag Messengers (FRA)
​
They bring early jazz back to life with an artisanal, intimate, and uncompromising touch. With a small piano rolled on a cart, a clarinet that tells stories, and a drum set beating like the heart of New Orleans and Harlem, this trio performs among the people — far from the spotlight, driven by pure passion.
August Caron - piano
Ezequiel Celada - clarinet
Ophelie Luminati - drums
ABOUT Saturday night...
Mauro L. Porro's Big Band
