A virtuoso trumpeter and a key figure in the French popular music scene, Ibrahim Maalouf returns to JAZZMI with T.O.M.A (Trumpets of Michel-Ange). An epic journey where folklore and modernity meet, the project becomes a grand celebration that brings together different generations and musical sensibilities, in which a festive yet nostalgic East finds fertile and vital ground in which to thrive. Maalouf’s music here achieves a perfect balance between refinement and immediacy, resulting in something both stimulating and welcoming, capable of speaking to a diverse audience. T.O.M.A is also the name of the new trumpet model designed by Ibrahim himself, created with the aim of encouraging trumpet players around the world to take part in what is envisioned as a true musical revolution.
