The challenge in the creation of this group is the confrontation of two very strong musical identities : the world of a jazz quartet and that of a well-known representative of French traditional music.

The group proposes a repertoire of original compositions by Laurent Cabané, leader of the group, melodies which leave space for interpretation and improvisation.

An unusual mix of instruments, a convergence of aesthetics, an association of musicians who are each well-recognized in their own field, ETSAUT attracts audiences of spectators seldom
found together.
