The newly founded record label 'Hellenic Jazz Society' has been showcasing the exciting Greek jazz scene and its talented musicians since 2024.
One of their latest releases is the album 'Vin Doux' by the George Kontrafouris Trio & Laurent Maur. The trio, consisting of George Kontrafouris on piano, Dinos Manos on double bass and Thanos Hatzianagnostou on drums, delivers a dense and experienced performance, creating an atmosphere that even Laurent Maur did not expect. The album offers a new perspective on a light-hearted, contemplative, charming and playful side of jazz, reminiscent of Toots Thielemans, Henry Mancini and Nino Rota.
The use of the harmonica, skilfully played by Laurent Maur, adds to the richness of the music. The album shows the long-standing friendship between George Kontrafouris and Laurent Maur, resulting in a unified and flowing journey through their music. All in all, 'Vin Doux' is a beautiful album where each track is equally outstanding.
The compositions are by Maur, Kontrafouris and guest Markos Alexiou.
