人聲、小號｜安德莉亞．莫蒂斯 Andrea Motis

未滿30歲、才貌兼具的安德莉亞．莫蒂斯不僅身兼歌手、作曲家、小號手和薩克斯風手數職，更是現今西班牙爵士樂壇最受矚目崛起新星。自小就嶄露才華的她，11歲即加入聖安德魯爵士樂團，14歲就錄製了第一張專輯《Joan Chamorro Presents Andrea Motis》，此後更於2012年發行了專輯《Feeling Good》。在首幾張專輯大獲好評後，2017年， 莫蒂斯於Impulse發行了她第一張全球發行專輯《Emotional Dance》，兩年後則由Verve發行《Do outro lado do azul》專輯，也讓她成為第一位在爵士音樂史上兩家最具指標性唱片廠牌皆發行專輯的西班牙音樂家。

在其輝煌的職業生涯中， 莫蒂斯與不少傳奇音樂家合作，如：昆西瓊斯、 馬友友、古巴國寶歌手歐瑪拉、葛萊美獲獎常客Milton Nascimento、Gil Goldstein、WDR大樂團、Scott Hamilton等。並在一些世上最具代表性的爵士音樂聖地演出，例如：東京爵士音樂節、紐約林肯中心爵士樂廳、維埃納爵士音樂節、巴塞隆納爵士音樂節、日本Blue Note爵士俱樂部、馬德里國家音樂廳，以及巴塞隆納加泰隆尼亞音樂宮。目前最新的計畫包括與智利室內樂團合作的《Febrero》，以及與小提琴家Christoph Mallinger與打擊樂手Zé Luis Nascimento組成的三重奏。

Andrea Motis (Barcelona, May 9, 1995) —singer, composer, trumpeter and saxophonist— is one of the most international artists to arise from the Spanish jazz scene. At the age of eleven she joined the Sant Andreu Jazz Band, and at fourteen she recorded her first album of standards, Joan Chamorro Presents Andrea Motis, which was followed, in 2012, by Feeling Good. Following the repercussion of her first albums came her first worldwide release, Emotional Dance (2017) on Impulse and, later, Do outro lado do azul (2019), on Verve, which made her the first Spanish artist to publish under these labels, both emblematic in the history of jazz.

Throughout her career, Andrea has collaborated with legendary artists such as Quincy Jones, Omara Portuondo, Milton Nascimento, Gil Goldstein, the WDR Big Band, Scott Hamilton or, in 2019, together with Yo-Yo Ma, with whom she performs as a duet El cant dels ocells, on the latest album by the remarkable cellist. He has performed concerts in some of the most representative jazz venues on the planet, such as the Tokyo Jazz Festival, Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, Jazz a Vienne, Festival de Jazz de Barcelona, Blue Note Japan, the National Music Auditorium in Madrid, or the Palau de la Música in Barcelona. Her latest projects are Febrero, with a chamber orchestra from Chile, and Temblor, a new trio with violinist Christoph Mallinger and percussionist Zé Luis Nascimento.
