NUBYA GARCIA - Opening: SAINT VOYAGE per Bari in Jazz 2025

**On July 19th**, starting at 9:00 PM, the evocative space of Il Granaio Eventi is set to host a memorable evening of visionary jazz and urban influences. The main feature will be **Nubya Garcia**, one of the most original and powerful voices in contemporary international jazz, marking her regional exclusive appearance in what promises to be an intensely emotional event.

**Nubya Garcia** returns to Italy with her new album *“ODYSSEY”*, an ambitious and deeply personal work. With her tenor sax, Garcia leads a sonic journey that blends jazz, classical, R&B, and dub into a powerful and boundary-free musical narrative. In a scene still too dominated by men, Nubya has emerged as a key figure, involving other extraordinary artists in her project like Esperanza Spalding, Richie Seivwright, and Georgia Anne Muldrow. Produced in collaboration with Kwes, “Odyssey” is a bold album that offers a broad, vibrant, and deeply human vision.

Joining her on stage:
**Lyle Barton** on piano and keyboards
**Daniel Casimir** on double bass
**Sam Jones** on drums
A compact and dynamic ensemble capable of supporting and amplifying the expressive power of the London saxophonist.

**Opening: Saint Voyage**
Opening the evening will be Saint Voyage, a new project born from the collaboration between **Dario Giacovelli** and **Giovanni Angelini**, along with **Vince Abbracciante** (Hammond and keyboards) and **Gaetano Partipilo** (sax). A collective that mixes jazz, urban environments, and rural inspirations, drawing from the industrial architecture of Berlin and the light of the Itria Valley. An intense and spiritual sonic experience that will be the perfect prelude to Nubya Garcia’s cosmic journey.
