CARTAGENA JAZZ FESTIVAL: Andrea Motis en concierto.
Andrea Motis has established herself as a major figure in European jazz. A singer, trumpeter, and saxophonist, she launched a brilliant career alongside the Sant Andreu Jazz Band and Joan Chamorro, quickly finding herself sharing the stage with artists such as Quincy Jones, Milton Nascimento, Omara Portuondo, Esperanza Spalding, and Yo-Yo Ma. With ten albums to her name and a musical path that moves effortlessly between classic jazz, Brazilian music, and funk, Motis stands out today as one of the most distinctive voices of her generation.
For this performance, she presents *To Amy*, a moving tribute to Amy Winehouse. Far from a conventional tribute concert, the show stems from a deeply personal experience: Andrea Motis herself acknowledges that Winehouse’s music served as a refuge and a form of therapy during her teenage years. Featuring new arrangements and a powerful blend of jazz, soul, and gospel, she revisits the British artist’s world with an intimate, elegant, and deeply sincere perspective.
The result is an intense, deeply sensitive concert that honors Amy Winehouse’s legacy, celebrating the emotional power and enduring relevance of songs that defined an entire generation.
