It was a mixture of Portal\u2019s and Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107\u2019s individual compositions and the songs they wrote in collaboration.<\/p>\n<p>Combination of instruments such as piano, electric keyboards and saxophone on the opening song called the \u201cFull Half Moon\u201d, was a great introduction of this famous duo to the Estonian audience. Not only that Portal and Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107 have showed the skills of musical multitasking, i.e. Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107 has been using the electric keyboard and the piano at once, they have also demonstrated an interesting approach of creating new sounds while experimenting with the instruments. Even though Portal said that he does not have a unique playing style, he proved himself wrong. His improvisations with the saxophone\u2019s sound were several times awarded with the applause and admiration.<\/p>\n<p>Song after song, the duo performed \u201cJ\u2019adore\u201d, \u201cLoving\u201d, \u201cTadorna\u201d and \u201cMax, Mon Amour\u201d, a famous composition that has been featured in the same titled move, released in the late 1980\u2019s.\u00a0 Compositions inspired by daydreaming of the sunny Cuban shore, entitled \u201cCuba si, Cuba no\u201d, has injected some extra positive energy into the concert hall of the Marina Pavilion. Since both musicians have different cultural and musical background, their diverse influences could be easily heard.<\/p>\n<p>In the last two songs entitled \u201cLittle Tango\u201d and \u201cCD Roms\u201d, the Argentinean melodies and some traditional Roma style rhythms have been featured. The story behind the last song, performed encore was quite interesting. Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107 wrote it in dedication to all Roma people who sell pirate CD\u2019s in the Belgrade flea market. Great sense of humour, nice melodies and splendid performance.<\/p>\n<p>Although Portal and Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107 have spent more time in interaction with each other, the positive reactions from the auditorium were not lacking. In fact, this French-Serbian duo was cheered after the last song and called back on the stage. After this energetic concert, it could be said that Michel Portal and Bojan Zulfikarpa\u0161i\u0107, gave a great jazz lesion to Estonian audience, from young and old alike. It was very nice to see a young father who brought his daughter for some high quality, live jazz performance by two well-known European jazz musicians, Michel Portal and Bojan Z.<\/p>\n<p>Michel Portal and Bojan Z\u00a0 performed at Marina Pavilion on 23rd of April 2013.<\/p>\n"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
