WASHA!

54519393_401226867335312_742239333225018

   In Creole, the word washa  is an interjection to say the moment, the flash. The album "WASHA!" fits into the aesthetic of contemporary jazz. It is in quintet that Maher Beauroy gives us a 1st original album,  energetic and fiery drawing inspiration from his Afro-Caribbean roots, classical music and his travels. The pianist freely alternates lyricism and a storm of rhythmic pulsations.

   Since its release on April 19, 2019, "WASHA!" was the "Album of the week" on FIP (France Inter Paris - May 2019), qualified as "REVELATION" by Jazz Magazine (N ° 717 - June 2019) and the pianist presented as the "New star of Caribbean jazz" by TSF Jazz.

A word from Jacques Shwarz-Bart

"Maher Beauroy has a rare combination of talents. He is a pianist with a unique playing: both full of Afro-Caribbean syncopations, harmonic sophistication anchored in jazz, and embellished with a touch of a classical concert performer. a composer who has known how to achieve the balance between the sounds of his Martinique and the winds which blow across the world. And to complete the whole, he sings with a lyricism and a freedom of phrasing which distinguish him from all that I I heard. Armed with all these qualities, he offers us his first album which exhibits a palette of original compositions and also some arrangements of local classics. This journey through his universe demonstrates an aesthetic full of emotion and wisdom. - beyond his years. Having been his teacher at Berklee College of Music, I am fascinated by his music and will follow with passion the budding of his work for years to come. "
