Cité de la Musique, 75019 [map]
Ahmad Jamal, Yusef Lateef, Archie Shepp, Benjamin Dousteyssier Septet

A truly unique chance to catch three genuine legends of jazz on the same stage. Grammy Award-winning composer, performer, recording artist, author, educator and philosopher Yusef Lateef has been changing the face of jazz for over six decades. Sax player, singer and pianist Archie Shepp has been no less influential, driving African American music forward over the last five decades through avant garde jazz to rap. Finally, one of the greatest jazz pianists to grace any stage, and one of Miles Davis' favourite pianists - Ahmad Jamal.

Warming up the stage for this stellar lineup will be the noted free jazz ensemble Benjamin Dousteyssier Septet.
