David Sancho comes to the 59th Jazzaldia as part of the X JazzEñe to bring us a preview of his latest work, Mind in Progress, a new and exciting project scheduled for release this autumn and combining traditional Jazz with genres such as rock and hip hop. This album will set David Sancho on the path of contemporary figures like Samora Pinderhughes and Jacob Collier, young talents who combine classic aesthetics with today’s sounds.

Despite his youth, the pianist has already released four albums while the versatility of his compositions has enabled him to work with artists such as Jorge Pardo, Rosario La Tremendita and the rapper Sharif.

Following the presentation of his latest project, Pindio II (2022), at the Südtirol, Madrid and the Lugo Jazz Festivals among others, Juan Saiz will bring his visceral and authentic music to JazzEñe and Jazzaldia.

The performer from Cantabria has positioned himself as one of the leading lights of Spanish avant garde Jazz, to the extent of becoming the first Spanish musician to release an album with the prestigious Leo Records label.
