Info for Media Luz

Jean-Marie Machado and Dave Liebman play together since 2003. Of this complicity were born two albums: Caminando (on 2008 - Pao Records) and Eternal Moments (on 2010 - Bee Jazz). In 2011, Jean-Marie Machado suggests to Dave Liebman inviting the German bugliste Claus Stötter and the string quartet Psophos; of this meeting was born the Media Luz project.

An exceptional musical moment for a dialogue between a magnificent European composer and a great American soloist who draws us a jazzchamber mood.

'In-between darkness and light, heads in the stars and feet firmly on the ground, Jean-Marie Machado and Dave Liebman know how to handle fire and ice, how to balance the acting spirit with writing thinking, how to convoke history and traditions while opening new territories. The repertoire they thought for this unusual septet (piano, soprano saxophone, trumpet, and a string quartet) also plays with contrasts between skillfully made suites and atmosphere pieces.'
