Auguste Quartet

Faithful to his original music, the ensemble has performed in dozens of countries on four continents, racking up hundreds of concerts in Asia, Mexico, the United States, Europe, Russia, Africa, and especially in Canada and Quebec, his native land.

With six albums to their credit – Auguste, Sphère Réflexion, Bluesy Lunedi (finalist at ADISQ and JUNO in 2010), Homo Pugnax, Circum Continum and Exalta Calma (awarded by Couleurs Jazz, France) – the group continues its journey with a new opus: Particules Sonores (also hailed by Couleurs Jazz as “best album”), a project both elusive and timeless.

This collective is a singular voice of modern jazz: a music that tells a story, that breathes, that evolves. The group plays with notions of time and space with intelligence and sensitivity. The production highlights individual strengths as much as group cohesion. Faithful to its acoustic roots, this new incarnation of the Auguste Quartet illustrates a rare complicity between exceptional musicians, where origins fade away before the raw force of collective creation. The exchange is lively, the inspiration flows – free, spontaneous, without borders.
