After several years of touring since the creation of the quartet that he leads, Leiton continues to consolidate his project with his fifth album, 'Caravana,' to be released between spring and autumn of 2023. The quartet of Santi de la Rubia, Toni Saigi, Andreu Pitarch and Martín Leiton, demonstrate just how extraordinary they are when their talents combine. Inspired by jazz greats like Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, and Duke Ellington, the new album from Leiton manages to pay tribute while adding Latin American music with Gnawa and Tuareg rhythms and melodies to these indisputable influences. Just one more detail that gives personality and power to the Martín Leiton Quartet.

The Martín Leiton Quartet comes up from the Barcelona jazz scene. The quartet includes Martín Leiton (double bass), Santi de la Rubia (sax), Toni Saigi (piano) and Andreu Pitarch (drums). Leiton graduated in Jazz and Modern Music from the Conservatorio Superior del Liceo in Barcelona but is self-taught in his initial training. Leiton is a multi-instrumentalist and singer and has been trained in different styles: from Latin American folk to jazz to American Black music to flamenco. He is currently a professor at the Taller de Músicos in Barcelona. He has released four albums as the quartet leader: Medium (96k Music, 2011), Poetry of Sound (Underpool Records, 2015), Inevitable (Blue Sounds, 2017) and Desde abajo (RASO, 2021). His early and fruitful professional career has allowed him to play with Jeff Ballard, Dave Kikoski, Kenny Werner, Perico Sambeat, Albert Bover, Jorge Pardo or Chano Domínguez, among others, and has toured with Jorge Drexler, Niña Pastori, Juan Perro, Mala Rodríguez, Lucia Fumero, etc.

Jü, formed in 2012, has become, by now, one of the most exciting jazz acts on the Hungarian music scene. With each successive release, the world of the Budapest-based trio band seems to become exponentially larger and encompass an ever-expanding range of vibrant and startling influences.

The series A Genius Is Born is a tribute to the male choir works by the three greatest Hungarian masters of music, so it is no coincidence that the concerts are taking place on the composers' birthdays. A special feature of the concert programme is that StEFREM's personal selection of works by the classical composers is complemented by outstanding and interesting pieces by their "heirs", the Hungarian composers of the 20th and 21st centuries.

The Visegrad Jazz Exchange is a new project of the V4 countries, initiated by the Jazz Po Polsku Foundation, to promote artistic cooperation between musicians and music institutions. The members of the project band, formed especially for this occasion, are all leading representatives of the current jazz scene in the four countries.
