Pol Omedes trumpet · Xavi Torres piano · Giuseppe Campisi doublebass · Andreu Pitarch drums
One of the most surprising and restless musicians of the younger generations is the trumpeter and composer Pol Omedes, one of the most stimulating revelations in recent years in our country. Omedes has demonstrated his extraordinary level in the various projects he has led, acclaimed by critics and fans alike. In 2020, he received the Young Talent Award from the Association of Jazz Musicians and Modern Music of Catalonia (AMJM). Currently, he leads his own sextet, with which he has just released the album ‘Tasty Time’ (The Changes). For this work, Omedes collaborated with pianist and singer Dena DeRose, an internationally renowned figure described by critic Joel Siegel (Washington City Paper) as “the most creative and convincing singer since Shirley Horn.” ‘Tasty Time’ includes original compositions with a post-bop sound and hints of Afro-Cuban music. Fresh, powerful, and dynamic.
