This young trumpet player got jazz from the crib. He is the son of Jordi Rossy, a component of the trio of Brad Mehldau, the famous American jazz pianist. With him he shared jam sessions when he was only 11 years old. With 17 he issued his first album, Introducing Felix Rossy (2011) and today he is one of the most noteworthy names in the national jazz scene.
Here he presents himself in a septet format accompanied by Toni Vaquer (piano), Santi Colomer (drums), Ernesto Aurignac (alto sax), Deejay Foster (bass), James Llompart (guitar) and Henry Oliver (tenor sax).
This year the concerts scheduled within the18 Festival Mallorca Jazz Sa Pobla are still for free, although a donation of 3 euros will be collected. A portion of this amount will go to the association Down i més to develop a music therapy project aimed at children with syndrome of Down, in collaboration with the Fundación Arizonia.
