On the border between chaos and harmony, jazz is born that breathes pure freedom. The João Mortágua Novo Trio debuts in Coimbra with a daring proposal: improvisation as a language, listening as a ritual.

Why go?

Jazz without Borders: Originals from Mortágua and reinvented standards, with roots in Coimbra and wings in the world.

Dialogue of Giants: Rui Alvarez (double bass), Nuno Rodrigues (trumpet) and special guest Mauro Ribeiro (guitar) weave a web of sound where every note is an answer and a question.

The instant as law: Nothing is predefined. Here, the stage is a laboratory where the now dictates the narrative.

“Because jazz isn’t played – it’s talked about. And in this conversation, even silence has an accent.”
