« Crossover » between classical music and jazz, the album Mikrokosmik is dedicated to Béla Bartók’s music, which universe, filled with popular melodies and songs, carries the notion of universality. These pieces from « Mikroskosmos » of Béla Bartók have been revisited through the form of an encounter : with the musical esthetics of today and with artists coming from classical and jazz cultures.
