Projects

David Viñolas presents a new quintet project, joinning four great musicians.
5ET
Album where we find a majority of own compositions and some standard, designed and arranged by this classical quintet (trumpet, saxophone, piano, double bass and drums) working on a repertoire inspired by tradition and approaching the freshness and warmth of the formations of the 60’s, making the quintet sound in a group, without protagonists.

It’s life is intensive, energetic, worm and full of swing, keeping the audience attention from the beginning.

Band with a long and consolidated trajectory.

Despite their eclecticism, the complicity and absence of a single leader among the three musicians has forged a unique sound that defines them.

The guitar trio was born in 2018 within the Jazz Cava of Vic, where they are resident artists and where they periodically present the concert series “Nucli Trio Invites”, sharing the stage with musicians from the national scene:
Edna Sey, Raynald Colom, David Pastor, Marcel·lí Bayer, Toni Saigi, Marta Roma, Manel Fortià, and others.

The trio, now fully established, recorded their first work
Nucli trio
(Errabal Jaz, 2021), bringing it to different stages across the country.

More recently, they released their second project
Nucli trio Interpreten la Música Laietana
(Errabal Jazz, 2025).
With this album they pay tribute to the Ona Laietana, the countercultural movement that emerged in Barcelona in the 1970s.
Jordi Bonell, Miquel Àngel Lizandra, Jordi Soley, and Eduard Altaba are some of the musicians who took part in that scene and who now join them in this adventure.
The young trumpet player and singer Alba Careta also collaborates, turning this into an intergenerational album that makes it even more distinctive.

At the same time, they are working on their next trio album, made entirely of original compositions, exploring a more conceptual approach.

At an intermediate point between jazz and classical, this duo offers a personal vision of works by Satie and Mompou, as well as some of their own compositions.

After the publication of their two volumes
Timbric recreations: from Mompou to Bartók
(Selfish Records), dedicated to the work of both composers and participating in the documentary
Resonances of a silent music
the duo returns to the charge with new repertoire, in this case focused on works by Erik Satie, Mompou and some of their own compositions and present the
album
Timbric recreations: from Satie to Mompou
(Columna Música, 2025).

The musician & composer Sergi Sirvent, from his time of student, has felt very close to these composers and in the way hi understands music.
Viñolas has felt attracted by the esthetic trends of the late XIX & XX centuries for years, finding out these composers who captivated him from the beginning.

A differential proposal that is positioned between jazz and impressionist and minimalist classical music, this duo offers a very personal vision of the
compositions of Erik Satie and Frederic Mompou, including some of their own compositions that are located in a similar aesthetic line.
The use of jazz languages, typical of improvisation mixed with more personal registers and dynamics of classical music make this artistic proposal a true
sound journey and a delight for the senses.

David, through the drums as the main instrument, shows us a very personal point, proposing an open and risky repertoire, different in each performance, where improvisation and free joyn the exploration of the drums as a solo instrument is decisive.
The repertoire is based on melodic-rhythmic lines already written, , that develops and links through sound, landscapes, atmospheres and textures, creating music without a solution of continuity. Sound, poly-rhythm, melody, silence, chaos and energy are some of the ingredients of these universe. Pure alchemy!
