corto.alto, Glasgow jazz and broken beat, Le Grand Mix, Tourcoing

Grand Mix

On Monday 22 March 2027 Le Grand Mix, at 5 place Notre-Dame in Tourcoing, welcomes corto.alto, presented by Tourcoing Jazz together with the venue. The listing says Glasgow has become a true jazz hotspot in recent years, and that one of its most striking revelations is corto.alto, the group led by the composer and multi-instrumentalist Liam Shortall, trained at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. His approach draws on hip-hop and broken beat as much as on soul and electronic music. The latest project, Some Small Fortune, is more open and collaborative, featuring Mick Jenkins, anaiis, Oscar Jerome, Jacob Alon and BINA. On stage acoustic instruments talk with electronics, pieces can change course at any moment, and the groove stays the common thread. The listing calls it bold and generous current jazz. Tickets cost 13 to 19 euros, and the lowest is used here. A standing jazz gig in a club is easy to enjoy alone. «CORTO.ALTO» Starts 20:00, ends about 21:30.
