CD review: Michel et Benjamin Legrand en concert – Les liens du Jazz 2008 – 2022: Video, CD cover

On this day of September 16, 2008; my father and I were attending my mother’s funeral. That same evening, imbued with emotions and memories, we were on stage at the Festival Jazz en Touraine to share, accompanied by a quartet of musicians among the greatest, this magnificent concert that you are about to watch. We all gave our best and the music, by its magic, only got more beautiful and stronger.

I would like to dedicate this evening to my mother, Christine, which will remain forever etched in my memory.
