Toninho Horta Quintet ft. Dawson Reinhardt

A key figure in Brazilian music and contemporary jazz, Toninho Horta returns to the Parisian stage for an exceptional concert, joined by a band bringing together musicians from the French and Brazilian jazz scenes.

A guitarist, singer and composer of genius, Toninho Horta is one of the great architects of the modern Brazilian sound. An emblematic member of the legendary Clube da Esquina movement, alongside Milton Nascimento, he developed a unique musical language blending sophisticated harmonies, captivating melodies and Brazilian rhythms. His musical world has deeply marked several generations of artists and influenced some of the biggest names in jazz, among them Pat Metheny, who holds him in particular admiration.

After many years away from Parisian stages, including a notable appearance at the mythical New Morning in December 2012 alongside pianist Manuel Rocheman, Toninho Horta returns to the capital for a rare evening, centred on sharing, improvisation and the meeting of musical cultures.

For the occasion, he will be joined by an exceptional line-up bringing together different generations of musicians around a repertoire where modern jazz, Brazilian influences and melodic sensitivity meet.
