DESCRIPTION:
The band «JAZZ BEATBOX PROJECT», born on Alfio Origlio’s initiative and is a trio composed of three musicians coming from really different musical universes, getting together around an original project guided by improvisation.

Alfio Origlio and Stéphane Edouard had worked together touring with Michel Jonasz. After backing the artist during several years they met regularly for other musical adventures. Concerning Alfio Origlio and Alem, they discovered each other in 2013 during a musical event in La Bâtie-Divisin. Chance made Alem come from the very village where Alfio lives.

JBP is mainly a meeting of three exceptional musical personalities: Alfio Origlio, pianist and jazz composer, brings to the trio his own creations and singular musical atmosphere, Stéphane Edouard, percussionist, strongly influenced by indian and occidental music, and Alem, recently elected beatbox world champion, quintessence of urban culture.

JBP is the first french band to propose a formula grouping instrumental music and beatbox, a vocal technique usually played as battles without musicians.

The trio defines itself as playing an extremely open minded Jazz / World music style, touching all categories of audience.

The show invites the audience to a journey from the banks of the Gange to Bronx’s urban culture. A daring mixture of hang, Fender Rhodes and human beatbox.

The discussion thread is based on improvisation. Every piece of music is a painting made of interactive improvisation moments.
