Almost two decades later, a magical night comes back to life: the new live single by Julio Awad and Patxi Pascual is released, recorded during their iconic performance at Auditorio Conde Duque in Madrid in 2006. This release captures a unique moment of live music, where improvisation, sensitivity, and the artists’ deep musical connection shine without filters.

Julio Awad, renowned pianist, composer, arranger, and musical director, and Patxi Pascual, a leading saxophonist in the Madrid scene, delivered a unique musical dialogue that flows between contemporary jazz, free improvisation, and timbral exploration. The recording, remastered with modern technology, preserves the authenticity of the live performance: the intensity of silences, the power of the nuances, and the creative freedom that defined that concert.

“There was no fixed structure; just the trust to play and discover what could happen," recalled Pascual and Awad.
