Each piece unfolds like a conversation — between the immediacy of jazz and the refinement of classical music, between harmonic richness and melodic clarity. Together, the musicians create a distinctive sound that adds a fresh voice to the contemporary European jazz scene.

Veda is joined by Laurent Peckels on bass, Julien Cuvelier on saxophone, and Maxime Magotteaux on drums.

The project was developed during a creative residency at Opderschmelz in Dudelange, Luxembourg, where the album was also recorded. Supported by Opderschmelz and the Œuvre Grand-Duchesse Charlotte, and presented in collaboration with KulturLX, Rise and Shine reflects the spirit of artistic collaboration and cultural exchange at the heart of the project.
