Dan Levelle x Elodie Lee x Jimmy Pittman

【Jazz Signature: Dan Levelle x Elodie Lee x Jimmy Pittman】爵士三重奏的對話美學

由資深吉他手 Dan LaVelle、女聲 Elodie Lee與低音提琴手 Jimmy Pittman 組成的三重奏，將以簡約的編制，展開一場充滿默契的聲響探索。

Dan LaVelle 的音樂生涯始於十二歲，歷經日本樂壇淬煉，並在香港流行音樂黃金時期為多位粵語歌手創作。他與葛萊美獎得主 Eric Marienthal 等國際音樂家的合作經驗，使其演奏融合 R&B、巴西節奏與爵士即興，展現出成熟而自在的音樂語言。

Elodie Lee 的聲線如絲絨般溫潤，敘事細膩而真摯，能於簡單旋律中寄寓深刻情感。低音提琴手 Jimmy Pittman 則以沉穩的撥弦與精準的節奏感，為三重奏奠定堅實基礎。這位來自美國的樂手，多年來參與無數演出，成為香港爵士場景中不可或缺的存在。

演出曲目將涵蓋經典搖擺樂、巴西巴薩諾瓦，並首度發表 Elodie 的原創作品。在極簡的編制中，三位音樂家將展現爵士樂最純粹的互動之美。

The trio formation featuring veteran guitarist Dan LaVelle, vocalist Elodie Lee, and double bassist Jimmy Pittman represents a masterclass in minimalist jazz—where every note carries weight, and silence speaks as eloquently as sound.

Dan LaVelle's musical journey, beginning at age twelve, spans formative years in Japan's music scene and Hong Kong's Cantopop golden era, where he composed for numerous leading artists. His collaborations with Grammy Award-winner Eric Marienthal and other international musicians have refined a style that seamlessly blends R&B phrasing, Brazilian rhythms, and jazz improvisation—a testament to his evolved and effortless musical language.

Elodie's voice, often described as velvet-textured, carries a narrative depth that transforms simple melodies into emotional journeys. Her phrasing embodies both vulnerability and conviction, inviting listeners into intimately crafted soundscapes. Meanwhile, Jimmy Pittman's steadfast bass lines and impeccable timing provide the trio's foundation. Since relocating from the United States, he has become an indispensable anchor within Hong Kong's jazz community through countless performances.

The program will traverse classic swing and Brazilian bossa nova, alongside the debut of Elodie's original compositions. Within this spare instrumentation, the three musicians prioritize conversation over monologue—revealing jazz's most essential beauty: the art of listening and responding.
