[ November 7th, 2025 release on Miel Music – Raphaël Pannier Quartet & Khadim Niang – Live in Saint Louis, Senegal ]
Out November 7, 2025 on Miguel Zenón’s Miel Music, Live in Saint Louis, Senegal captures Pannier’s quartet with Yosvany Terry, Thomas Enhco and François Moutin sharing the stage with an eight-piece ensemble of West African sabar drummers. French drummer-composer Raphaël Pannier blends jazz and sabar in a historic collaboration with Senegalese master drummer Khadim Niang.
“[Pannier is] an imaginative colourist, and a master of textures whose light touch on the drum kit brings to mind the delicate brushstrokes of an impressionistic painter.” – Ed Enright, DownBeat
“Whether conversationally swinging [or] leading the band through mutable machinations… Pannier proves impressive. His technique is second to none, he feels music with both firmness and pliancy, and he shapes every arc—large or small—with dynamic intention(s).” – Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz

Out August 26, 2022 on Miel Music, Música de Las Américas features all-new music from Zenón for his long-time working quartet plus master percussionists from his native Puerto Rico.
“This music is inspired by the history of the American continent: not only before European colonization, but also by what’s happened since—cause and effect,” says Miguel Zenón of his latest album of all original works, Música de Las Américas. The music grew out of Zenón’s passion for the history of the American continent, and the resulting album pays tribute to its diverse cultures while also challenging modern assumptions about who and what “America” is.
