Renowned classical saxophonist Nicolas Prost and jazz pianist Sébastien Paindestre present “At the Border of Jazz,” a blend of classical precision with jazz spontaneity. Featuring works by Wayne Shorter, Paquito D’Rivera, Branford Marsalis, Michel Portal, Airelle Besson, Bojan Z, and Nguyen Le, the program showcases pieces written exclusively for the duo. Touring globally, the two musicians captivate audiences with innovative interpretations echoing Gershwin and Bernstein’s genre-blurring genius.
