Montreal pianist and composer Gentiane Michaud Gagnon, known as Gentiane MG, has carved a significant niche in contemporary jazz, earning an OPUS Award for Discovery of the Year in 2020. Her work, often with her trio featuring bassist Levi Dover and drummer Mark Nelson, blends classical influences with modern jazz, as heard on her 2019 album Wonderland (Effendi) and her recent 2026 release, Can You Hear the Birds?. Her compositions are celebrated for their emotional depth, technical fluency, and a unique "ear-based" creative process that prioritizes listening and collaboration. Expect a fluid, deeply connected performance that invites introspection and emotional clarity.
