Shai Maestro – The Guesthouse
Shai Maestro made his name as part of Avishai Cohen’s trio when he was 19. Since then, the wildly creative pianist has established himself as one of the torchbearers of contemporary jazz, following in the footsteps of Keith Jarrett, Paul Bley, and Chick Corea. Following his solo album Miniatures & Tales on Naïve Records, he has announced a new quartet album for 2026. The Guesthouse, inspired by Rosalía, Paul Simon, and John Coltrane, was recorded with the three talented and loyal collaborators who will be joining him on stage tonight.
China Moses
China Moses is one of the most beautiful voices in African-American music today. Eight years after Nightintales, Dee Dee Bridgewater’s daughter is back with It’s Complicated…, a masterful and highly personal new studio album tinged with jazz, soul, and blues. Today, she presents the repertoire to us with the charisma and infectious joy that describe her so well.
JAM SESSIONS
After the concerts, the Châtelet will exceptionally open the doors of its sumptuous Nijinsky Foyer to the public, which will be transformed into a jazz club for the occasion… so the party continues every evening with a wild jam session! At the helm is piano maestro and pillar of the Rue des Lombards, Fred Nardin!
