Macha Gharibian Trio @Théâtre Marni

Concert opening of River Jazz Festival 2020

She’s a singer, pianist, author, composer, raised on the streets and following in the footsteps of her musician father. Her music, a sort of elegant jazz folk pop mix, has mysteriously seen the light of day somewhere between Paris, New York and Erevan. A pianist with a delicate touch, with a classical background, it was only upon leaving Paris for New York in 2005 that Macha Gharibian found herself. Guided by Ralph Alessi, Uri Caine, Jason Moran, Ravi Coltrane at the School for Improvisational Music, she started to write and create her universe, music made up of her travels, her desires, her roots and everything that characterises this young woman who grew up divided between three cultures: Armenian ancestors, a Parisian heart and a New Yorker by adoption. For the festival’s opening concert, she will present her premiere of “Joy Ascencion”, her 3rd album, before its official release at the end of January.
