The Magic Sound of the Violin

Two years after the CD "Joan Chamorro presenta Èlia Bastida", in which she put in a multifacted performance (violinist as the main instrument, vocalist and tenor saxophone), this "The magic sound of the violin" sees the light of day.

Èlia, during the 8 years that she has been a member of the Sant Andreu Jazz Band, has had such an interest, dedication and passionate devotion to music, and specifically to jazz, that her evolution has led her to become, today, a great soloist, especially on the violin.

The violin is an instrument that, in my opinion, still has a lot to contribute to jazz. There have been and there are great violinists (Grappelli, Venuti, Ponty, Lockwood, to name but a few).

Èlia is already walking her own musical path, rich in nuances, open and free of labels, but, above all, passionate, with which she manages to extract all the marvellous possibilities that "the magic sound of the violin" has.

Èlia Bastida joins the world of jazz violinists.
