EventConcert "Coltrane 100"
The quartet of Igor Yakovenko will present a program dedicated to the work of John Coltrane - one of the main innovators of jazz in the 20th century. The music of the saxophonist will be heard in new interpretations, revealing the path from hard bop to free improvisation and showcasing the power of rhythm, melody, and jazz exploration. The program of Igor Yakovenko's quartet is dedicated to the work of John Coltrane. His works have become an important part of the genre's history, and the explorations in the field of improvisation continue to inspire performers and listeners around the world. During the evening, original readings of key stages in the saxophonist's creative journey will be presented. The musicians will refer to the early period associated with the rapid hard bop and expressive ballads, as well as to the era of modal compositions from the album My Favorite Things, which changed the perception of the possibilities of jazz improvisation. A special place in the program will be occupied by works from A Love Supreme - a spiritual suite that has become one of Coltrane's most famous works. Through different periods of his creativity, listeners will be able to trace how the musical language of the composer changed: from classical jazz forms to bold experiments and free explorations. The ensemble includes Artem Badenco on tenor saxophone, Igor Yakovenko on piano, Nikolai Zatolochny on double bass, and Omar Saidov on drums. Where to go in Moscow can be found on KUDAGO.
