WED 8 & 9:30 Oscar Peñas Quartet w/Kevin Sun, Corentin Le Hir, Rodrigo Recabarren
About This Event
At Bar Bayeux the Oscar Peñas Quartet — Peñas with saxophonist Kevin Sun, Corentin Le Hir, and bassist Rodrigo Recabarren (from Santiago de Chile) — plays music that pairs written structures with open-ended interplay. Peñas favors ensemble momentum; Sun brings experimental, free-jazz inflections while remaining attentive to song form, and Le Hir moves between straight-ahead language and freer approaches, foregrounding interaction over solo display in a small-room setting.
