Additional Information
To kick off 2026, what could be better than a jazz concert where improvisation takes center stage? That’s precisely what Damián Birbrier, the half-Argentine, half-Brazilian saxophonist, offers in his project “Aguas: Time and Memories.” For this occasion, he will be accompanied by Vovô Saramanda on percussion, Manoel Vieira on piano and accordion, and Antoine Rocherfort on double bass. Damián has a special connection with water, as it has been the common thread throughout his family’s many moves over generations. To this, he adds the concepts of time and memory to trace his multiple identities through improvised music. In fact, an album of his latest live concert in a trio format with Vovô and Antoine is in the works and will be released soon. Our journalist Sandra Gasana spoke with him a few days before the concert which will take place on Thursday, January 8 at Casa del Popolo starting at 8 p.m.
