An evening full of wanderlust, warmth, and sonic expansiveness
On November 15, 2026, the Matthieu Saglio Quartet will present a concert in the Bechersaal that merges jazz, world music, and Mediterranean lightness. The French cellist has lived in Valencia for many years, having released albums such as Ahlam, El Camino de los Vientos, and Voices, and is regarded as one of the most distinctive voices in European jazz.

Cello with a passport
Saglio envisions the cello not just as a solo instrument but as a storyteller with many colors: sometimes soft and singing, sometimes rhythmically charged, sometimes almost orchestral. This creates the live atmosphere for which his projects are known: a concert experience between chamber music, jazz improvisation, and openness to world music. The quartet, featuring Christian Belhomme, Léo Ullmann, and Zé Luis Nascimento, adds finely tuned layers of sound and precise synchronization.

Bayreuth receives an intimate sound space
The Bechersaal in the Becher inn is made for such evenings: The historic brewery inn at St.-Nikolaus-Straße 25 is considered one of Bayreuth's oldest addresses, offering space for around 230 guests and typical event features such as seating, a bar, sanitary facilities, and an integrated cloakroom. Here, warm room acoustics meet an atmosphere where every detail of the stage performance feels close. ([becherbraeu.de](https://becherbraeu.de/historie/))
Music with European expansiveness
Saglio has gained international recognition with projects like NES, El Camino de los Vientos, and Voices; his album El Camino de los Vientos was released by ACT and reportedly reached millions of streams on Spotify, while Voices continues the idea of musical encounters between different voices and cultures. This blend of melody, orchestration, and improvisational freedom also shapes the anticipation for Bayreuth. ([matsag.com](https://www.matsag.com/bio/?utm_source=openai))
Anticipation for an evening with character
On November 15, 2026, a concert will take place in the Bechersaal that does not loudly demand attention but wins it through substance: an intimate live experience for listeners seeking musical depth, subtle dynamics, and emotional tension. Anyone wishing to experience world jazz with a real stage, perceptible audience atmosphere, and elegant sound aesthetics should attend this date live.
