This tour unites Chicago\u2019s alto saxophonist Greg Ward<\/strong> and drummer Isaiah Spencer<\/strong> with French musicians H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Labarri\u00e8re<\/strong> on double bass and Nicolas Peoc\u2019h<\/strong> on alto saxophone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the French side, double bassist H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Labarri\u00e8re, a veteran of both jazz and traditional music, brings a vibrant, liberated approach, drawing from years of crossing genres and experimenting within jazz and contemporary music. Her playing reflects a deeply felt connection to both melody and rhythm, captivating listeners with its raw energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saxophonist Nicolas Peoc\u2019h infuses the lineup with an eclectic style that incorporates influences from jazz, Latin American music, and West African traditions. His innovative approach to the saxophone adds a unique depth and playfulness to each piece, bringing a sense of adventure to the ensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bridge #2.11 promises an unforgettable exploration of jazz, with every performance an invitation to experience the raw energy and creativity that comes only from live improvisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
