Nicolas Masson, a Geneva saxophonist of international renown, joins forces with Colin Vallon, Patrice Moret and Lionel Friedli to create a quartet of rare alchemy. Renaissance (2025), his fourth album for ECM, his compositions open up vast spaces of expression, allowing a collective dynamic of rare intensity to blossom. Together, they shape a music where improvisation and interaction occupy a central place. Their complicity, the fruit of twenty years of collaboration, is expressed with purity and nuance, creating a deeply immersive and fascinating experience.
