Meet French composer and pianist Andy Emler on the stage of the D’Jazz Nevers festival for an exciting concert with energetic and powerful jazzmen! During this performance, titled Running backwards, the artist surprises us with a program that masterfully combines jazz, rock, contemporary classical and improvisation.
