Astounding and charismatic bassist Fons brings together the worlds of folk, jazz and classical music. His new collaboration sees him on a journey back to the Mediterranean of his childhood exploring the traditions that formed him, including jazz, flamenco, moorish percussion and Latin dance rhythms. It is hard to convey the hypnotic power of his playing — he is a phenomenal virtuoso who will have you gasping at the sheer brilliance of his performance; but he is a touching poet too, a lyrical melodist of the first order.
