SONS D'Hiver Festival WILLIAM PARKER “TRAIL OF TEARS

Concert hall | Maison des Arts de Créteil | 1 place Salvador Allende - 94000 Créteil

Paris, France .. Feb 18th 8pm -10pm - More Info -> Here

In jazz, radical honesty is best represented by William Parker. His compositions are blunt, and they always display – albeit indirectly – strong political convictions. However, the double bass player will not play with your nerves. Neither will he up the stakes. His music, while full of awareness, is also infinitely humble. This sound poem gives a fresh example of the way languages are linked by what Parker calls “universal tonality”.
