A worthy heir to pianists like Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock, or McCoy Tyner, Olivier Hutman offers a clear, dynamic, and nuanced style of playing. In addition to being a performer, he is also a composer and arranger, a specialist in African music, and holds a PhD in musicology focused on urban music in Ghana.

Naturally, this leads to a connection with the kora of Lamine Cissokho, born in 1971 into a family of griots from Casamance, Senegal. Lamine is a singer-songwriter, kora player, and singer, navigating between several musical styles rooted in Mandingo music, blending different genres.

Drawing from all their influences, Olivier Hutman and Lamine Cissokho have merged their experiences in a limitless musical exchange. Modern, open improvisations that renew tradition between Mandingo kora, jazz, and a fusion of elements unique to each style... with no restrictions. The joy of playing and the desire to explore uncharted territories...
