Vijay Iyer, Prasanna, and Nitin Mitta in Clichy-sous-Bois

Discover this superb trio, a new captivating adventure by American pianist Vijay Iyer, flirting the line between jazz and Indian traditional music. Since his beginnings by the side of legend Steve Coleman, Iyer has not stopped renewing himself, equally brilliant in his sonic experiments with his Fieldwork Quartet as in his invigorating projects with DJ Talvin Singh and rapper Mike Ladd.

Once again, the performer surprises his audience with a project that further solidifies improvised music's place in the twenty-first century. Accompanied by Prasanna on guitar and Nitin Mittas on tablas, the virtuoso lights up the stage of the Banlieues Bleues festival, in this 2011 concert that combines the direct sounds of contemporary jazz and this intimacy of raga in a subtle balance.
