Monty Alexander live in Paris

Experience Monty Alexander live on October 6th

Monty Alexander is scheduled to perform at New Morning in Paris, France on October 6, 2026. Alexander is a Jamaican-born pianist renowned for his virtuosic improvisations and deeply rooted connection to the jazz tradition, particularly the work of Oscar Peterson – whom he directly succeeded in Norman Granz’s Jazz at the Philharmonic. His style blends bebop, gospel, calypso, and blues influences, resulting in a uniquely energetic and joyful sound. He frequently incorporates Caribbean rhythms into standard jazz repertoire and is also known for his solo piano performances.

New Morning is a prominent jazz club located in the 10th arrondissement of Paris. Established in 1981 by Jean-Luc Rebout and Pierre-Alain Vaillant, it quickly became a key venue for both established international artists and emerging French talent. The club has hosted numerous legendary figures across jazz, blues, and world music including Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis, and Dee Dee Bridgewater. New Morning is recognized for its intimate atmosphere and excellent acoustics; it's designed with a relatively low ceiling which contributes to its warm sound quality.
