AMINA FIGAROVA SEXTET
Fri May 12 @ 8:00 pm
Hailing from Azerbaijan, the New Orleans by way of New York based Amina Figarova is an internationally influenced—and recognized—composer, pianist, and bandleader. Those three roles come to the forefront in Figarova’s sextets, bands with a remarkable chemistry that brings her detailed arrangements to life. Every member of the group stands out as a first-rate individual, but their dedication to Figarova’s eclectic and powerful compositions gives the group its depth of feeling and elite status. The Amina Figarova Sextet has been a hit at major festivals like the Newport Jazz Festival and New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.
On her most recent album, released in Fall 2022 on AmFi Records, Figarova seeks to inspire a more optimistic and positive future on with “JOY.” Joy is a return to the acoustic piano setting following the groove-heavy electronic excursion of her previous album, 2020’s “Persistence.”
