8 May: Adrien Brandeis

About this event

ADRIEN BRANDEIS is a french jazz pianist and composer (Annecy, 1992) graduated from the conservatory of Paris. In 2017, he produced his first album “Euforia“, which had great recognition and international success. “Euforia” put Adrien Brandeis, in the spotlight of the Jazz scene, and led him to be awarded the prestigious Letter One Rising Stars Jazz Award 2018. In 2020, he wrote his second album “Meetings“, in quartet. It allows him to move towards a more modern and fresh sound. This album was selected by TSF Jazz Radio as Top 10 Best jazz albums in France. In 2022, he released in quartet “Siempre más allá” recorded in Mexico. It represents Adrien’s personal tribute to Mexico. In November 2022, he awarded the UNAC Grand Prize for New Jazz Talent 2022. After this fruitful experience, he returned to France at the beginning of 2024 and formed a band with the Guadeloupean drummer Arnaud Dolmen (featured on ‘Meetings’), joined by the Cuban (and Parisian) double bass player Felipe Cabrera and two of his compatriots on percussion: Abraham Mansfarroll or Yaroldy Abreu (depending on the track). It’s a quartet that adopts different instrumental formulas as the tracks progress (piano/percussion duo, piano/bass/drums trio or quintet with the two percussionists). In May 2025, he released his fourth album, “RESURGENCE”, marking his return to the French and European scene.  A record that astonishes us with its musical maturity, scope, intensity and diversity.
