CDs of Oaktree (Belgium), Ahaddaf Quartet (Morocco, Sicily, Germany, France and Netherlands).
1/ OakTree is an acoustic music trio with vocals, cello and accordeon: poetic music brought by three musicians who are impacted by the imagination of their listeners. Well is not a jazz CD but it is an album influenced by jazz with a lot of singing. Thanks to the addition of the guest musicians this has become quite a varied CD.
