Jorge Pardo Trio
Jorge Pardo — flute and saxophone
Melón Jiménez — guitar
Bandolero — percussion
My trio always consists of queens, kings, and aces of flamenco and jazz — artists who embody the essence of music itself: rhythmic mastery, the joy of improvisation, and deep commitment to music as a whole — not only as individuals, but as part of a collective process that actively involves the audience. The audience is never a passive observer; through this musical ceremony, they become co-conspirators in whatever unfolds at each concert.
Soleares, siguiriya, tangos, tarantos, bulerías, and other flamenco palos are treated with profound respect for their essence and rigorous knowledge of flamenco roots — yet simultaneously with the artistic freedom every musician must claim to make the message personal, original, and contemporary.
Ultimately, a 100% ‘flamencojazz’ experience — yet one unbound by clichéd conventions.
