Phil Abraham Quartet • Belgian Jazz Legend
Phil Abraham (trb, voc) ; Joachim Caffonnette (p) ; Victor Foulon (b) ; Oscar Georges (dr)
Active since the mid-1980s, Phil Abraham is one of the great ambassadors of Belgian jazz and, without question, the most emblematic trombonist in the country.
Over the course of an impressive career, he has collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz — from Michel Petrucciani and Clark Terry to Maria Schneider and Art Farmer, as well as the orchestras of Charles Aznavour and Claude Nougaro, not to mention of course Toots Thielemans. In other words, a true national heavyweight we are welcoming this Sunday.
For his second concert of the season at Toots, he is joined by a high-energy rhythm section whose love for standards is second nature.
