On stage, as on their self-titled debut album released in 2020, the pair display a rare musical connection, deep harmonic insight, boundless imagination and the risk-taking spirit essential to any genuine interpretation of Duke Ellington or Miles Davis. Their forthcoming album, La Tregua, raises the bar once again with an entirely new slate of compelling original compositions.

By carving out new territory for the piano-guitar duo, Rey and López-Nussa have forged a language that is unmistakably their own since their coming together in 2017 – welcoming the audience into moments of shared magic. The result is a warm, engaging exchange – sometimes intimate, sometimes grand – refined yet light-hearted, like a conversation between friends set to music.

Pushing further into textural and rhythmic exploration, La Tregua also marks a leap forward in how the duo records. Captured in a single day on analog tape using just one stereo microphone, the result is raw and immediate – an unfiltered performance with no edits or overdubs, preserving the energy and intimacy of the moment.

Across tracks like the earthy “L’ami de Rasputin,” the cinematic “En las nubes,” and the angular “Fo’ Blue,” the album tells stories through sound – balancing narrative form with bold improvisation and rich emotional contrasts. The title track serves as a powerful centrepiece: a slow-building piece of tension and release that reflects the album’s themes of pause, reflection, and renewal.

With La Tregua, Duo Réflections reaffirm their place as a unique and expressive voice in contemporary jazz – one rooted in shared intuition, deep listening, and fearless musical storytelling.
