Manon Mullener Trio

Switzerland

Manon Mullener is one of the promising young talents of European jazz. She weaves her notes between jazz, Cuban music, where she studied, and melodies from her native Switzerland. Her compositions are travel journals, blending echoes from scenes around the world, from New York to Havana, via European festivals.

With her new album Stories, recorded in New York, the young Swiss pianist Manon Mullener takes us on a musical journey inspired by the moving stories of people she has met around the world. Each track on this modern jazz album with Cuban influences tells a unique life story, such as that of Zoila, a 95-year-old Cuban grandmother who recalls the perfume shop she ran with her husband in Havana in the 1950s, or that of Noh, a Mexican taxi driver attached to Mayan values, and that of Willard, an opera lover from the upscale neighborhoods of New York.

A world tour of 100 concerts will allow audiences to discover these musical stories live, with an energy and depth that promise unforgettable thrills.
