Late Night Jazz: Arshid Azarine Trio

Join the Arshid Azarine Trio for a powerful evening of cross-cultural sound, heartfelt improvisation, and musical storytelling. Known for their unique fusion of Persian roots and contemporary jazz, the trio features Arshid Azarine on piano, Habib Meftah on percussion and vocals, and Hervé de Ratuld on bass.

Their acclaimed albums 7 Djan and Sing Me a Song showcased collaborations with Iranian and international artists, blending mystic Persian poetry with global jazz influences. Now, with their latest release Vorticity, the trio embarks on a bold new musical journey. Inspired by both the turbulence of recent events in Iran and Azarine’s background in cardiovascular research, Vorticity explores themes of chaos, love, and renewal through intricate rhythms and evocative melodies.

From deeply emotional tributes like 75.2 BPM and Song to Jina to the joyful celebration of life in tracks like Baharoun and Abann, this concert offers a moving and immersive experience.

Vaak Records and Art Stage are Iranian promoters based in London, dedicated to showcasing music from Persian-language communities worldwide. They aim to create new international cultural experiences by fostering collaboration between Iranian and international musicians, particularly those from the SWANA region.
