The 1992 album recorded by Michel Legrand and Stephane Grappelli has become a coveted piece for collectors all over the world, and on this occasion Jazz San Javier has brought together, in a unique production, four great musicians from the European Union: the great Catalan pianist Ignasi Terraza, festival award winner in 2016 and an artist greatly loved by our audience; the young German violinist Sandro Roy, a prodigy recognized in both classical music and jazz; the great French bassist Pierre Boussaguet, a long-time member of Michel Legrand's trio; and the prestigious drummer Esteve Pi, one of the best in Spanish jazz. Great virtuosos to honour the musical legacy of Legrand and Grappelli.
