About This Past Event:
Last July, Evan Christopher's sold out evenings at the Duc des Lombards, the best listening room in Paris, commemorated the centenary of Sidney Bechet's 1919 debut in Europe. In the nascent days of jazz, Bechet opened the music world's eyes to the music's possibilities. Featured artists included pianist Philippe Milanta, bassist Sébastien Girardot and drummer Julie Saury.
