Hillai Govreen & Artur Vidal in Concert at 38Riv Jazz Club

Hillai Govreen and Artur Vidal bring a unique fusion of jazz and Brazilian choro to the intimate 38Riv Jazz Club in Paris's Marais district. The New York-based clarinetist, saxophonist, and composer joins the Rio de Janeiro seven-string guitarist for an evening of lyrical melodies, improvisation, and rhythmic richness rooted in tradition yet open to spontaneous discovery.

Their performance explores the musical connections between jazz and choro, drawing on Brazilian instrumental music, South American composers, jazz repertoire, and their own arrangements. The warm resonance of the seven-string guitar and the expressive voice of clarinet and saxophone create a dialogue that celebrates listening and the power of music to transcend languages and cultures.

This concert is part of the Jazz sur Seine 2026 festival, offering an intimate setting for a captivating musical journey.
