Carte blanche à Hermon Mehari — Invite Nelson Veras

Trumpeter Hermon Mehari, a rising force in international jazz, takes over the intimate 38Riv Jazz Club for a special evening alongside guitarist Nelson Veras. Known for his lyrical improvisation and deep emotional range, Mehari has earned acclaim from Jazz Magazine as Foreign Artist of the Year (2022) and Trumpeter of the Year (2024).

For this carte blanche, he brings together a quartet featuring Veras on guitar, Yoni Zelnik on double bass, and Jesus Vega on drums. The set promises a journey through Mehari's singular universe, blending contemporary jazz with Afro-diasporic influences and a spirit of free expression.

Set in the heart of the Marais, 38Riv Jazz Club offers an intimate setting perfect for experiencing the nuanced interplay of these accomplished musicians. This is a rare chance to hear Mehari in a small-club environment, where his trumpet work and the group's chemistry can truly shine.
