LINA ALLEMANO FOUR

LINA ALLEMANO FOUR is an acoustic chamber-jazz quartet that plays Allemano’s original music, written specifically for the group with a mandate of strong group interaction, improvisation, and sonic exploration. Each member of the group is a creative and highly expressive soloist and improviser in his/her own right, bringing equally important and distinctive musical character and contributions to the band’s collective sound since 2005.

“Lina Allemano and her band have created an eclectic sound that makes its own synthesis of tradition and avant-garde, of structure and freedom, of clever composition and emotional depth, of abstraction and warmth… beautiful and moving and fun.” – Stef Gijssels, The Free Jazz Collective
