      • Quincy Jones at Jazz a Vienne

        QUINCY JONES - NEW GENERATION at Jazz a Vienne; Quincy Jones feat. Alfredo Rodriguez, Nikki Yanofsky, Andreas Varady, Justin Kauflin; Quincy Jones is a monument of popular music. Over the past five decades, the trumpeter (who was already studying with Clark Terry at the age of 13) became a world-famous arranger, composer and producer. This summer he is presenting his new discoveries: 'New Generation by Quincy Jones'. They include young Cuban pianist Alfredo Rodriguez who was introduced to him at Montreux in 2006. His second album, 'The Invasion Parade', was co-produced by Quincy. Twenty-year-old Canadian singer Nikki Yanofsky presents 'Little Secret', her second opus produced by Quincy. She also worked with Herbie Hancock whose 'Watermelon Man' was clearly an inspiration for her single 'Something New'. Slovak (and Gipsy) guitarist Andreas Varady is right on the heels of his idol George Benson. Also self-taught, he was noticed by Quincy at Montreux in 2012. His second album, co-produced by David Foster and Quincy is being released this year. Lastly, blind piano virtuoso Justin Kauflin comes to Vienna to present his album 'Introducing Justin Kauflin'. Recorded in Théâtre Antique de Vienne on 3 July 2014 (121 min)

      • Guillaume Perret - Jazz a Vienne

        Guillaume Perret; Guillaume Perret, saxophone, machines; The saxophonist from Annecy (born in 1980) racked up the pressure on the contemporary jazz scene (from 2009) with his group The Electric Epic. Three years later and John Zorn himself described it as 'a whirlwind of emotion' and released the extravert, panoramic and electric fusion on his Tzadik record label. It was an explosion of sound with funky beats and quirky harmonies blending metal, electro, Africa, psychedelia and the hot wind of free style. After two incredible albums with Electric Epic, Guillaume Perret is going it alone with his new album Free (2016). Perret's sense of solitude is comparable to Deleuze's opening to Mille Plateaux: 'Since there were many of all of us, there were already too many people.' You can spot the almost symphonic ramped-up saxophone and the deafening rhythmic loops that make Guillaume Perret multiple, all-encompassing and so spectacular. Recorded on 2017, July 13th at the Jazz Festival in Vienne; TV Director, Nicolas Micha (74 min)

      • Keziah Jones - Jazz a Vienne

        Keziah Jones; Keziah Jones, vocal, guitar; Joel Grant, bass; Joshua McKenzie, percussion; Keziah Jones was born into a wealthy family in 1968 in Lagos, Nigeria. He was sent to school in England at the age of 8 and he taught himself to play the piano and guitar in London. He gradually created a stunning rhythmic blend of smooth funk, Hendrix-style psychedelia, pure Ikeja reggae and Yoruba harmonies. He called it BluFunk. Keziah Jones hung out English pubs in central London before heading to Paris where he was spotted in the underground in 1991. The album Blufunk Is a Fact and the track Rhythm is Love were international hits. After venturing through the desert of the mid-90s, he struck gold in 2003 with his fourth album Black Orpheus then the unstoppable Nigerian Wood (2008). Keziah completed an ambitious double album in 2013 flitting between Los Angeles, Spain and his kingdoms in London and Lagos. The dandy fighter is well and truly back to win over his audience. Recorded on 2017, July 13th at the Jazz Festival in Vienne; TV Director, Nicolas Micha (71 min)
