Jordi Sabatés

Jordi Sabatés is a Barcelona-born pianist, composer, and eclectic musical storyteller whose career spans jazz, classical, film soundtracks, and avant-garde explorations. Emerging from Catalonia’s vibrant 1970s scene, he co-founded the genre-blurring band Música Urbana, mixing progressive rock with Mediterranean folk flair. As a solo artist, Sabatés crafts piano-driven narratives that swing between poetic introspection and playful whimsy, often nodding to literary giants (like Baudelaire on *Antologia*) or silver-screen icons (hello, Buster Keaton on *Keatoniana*). His recent works—like the vampiric mystique of *Nosferatu* or the avian-inspired *Ocells del Més Enllà*—showcase his knack for translating visual and historical motifs into rich, melodic tapestries. Whether dueting with percussionist Santi Arisa or paying homage to Cuban legend Bola de Nieve, Sabatés remains a charmingly unpredictable figure in Spain’s experimental music landscape.
