        Yaron Herman, the most impressive pianist among the young generation, returns with the amazing drummer Gerald Cleaver and the no less talented double bass player Matt Brewer. The freshness and open-mindedness heard in Cully command respect. Yaron Herman's ideas are truly innovative and inspired, with their use of left-hand ostinatos and the extreme energy of his playing. Yaron Herman shares the stage with the audience, like a tightrope artist who never quite sits nor stands as the music gathers pace. His entire body plays along with his fingers. A spectacular concert in every sense of the word, featuring a striking young virtuoso of the piano. (60 min)

When in 2001 Tomasz Stanko recorded ' Soul of Things ', the American magazine Stereophile wrote: he has to envy nothing 'Kind of Blue' of Miles Davis. Stanko is one of bigger actors of the jazz in Europe. It is in 1975 when he collaborated for the first time with the label ECM. He recorded magnificent albums since decades. With ' Soul of Things ', he rethought his roots about various levels and let reappear his first influences of Miles Davis and Chet Baker. He was inspired for the opportunity of his first compositions and the musics which had mattered for him, in particular those of Krzysztof Komeda. And for the first time on an album ECM, he surrounded itself wih a Polish group. Indeed, since decade, Stanko worked with a young group. ' He enormously helped me to find my voice ' comment on the pianist Marcin Wasilewski. This combination between the experience of Stanko and the energy of the youth of the trio has proved to be very productive by creating a music at the same time dynamic, lyric, well-balanced and very beautiful. Two years later, ' Suspended Night ' was crowned golden record in Poland. He climbed at the top of Billboard Jazz Charts in the United States (what arrives only very rarely for an European group). On their last record ' Lontano ' which closed their trilogy in 2006, most of the material formed themselves spontaneously and the group has create freely played ballads. Since then, the ways of these four musicians separated to find itself occasionally among which on December 8th, 2012 at Dinant, Adolphe Sax's home town, inventor of the saxophone!

      • Meyer, Writing Ground by Alonzo King. Maison de la Danse de Lyon

        MEYER and WRITING GROUND; Two choreographies by Alonzo King; Lines Ballet; MEYER; Original music by Edgar Meyer; Lights by Axel Morgenthaler; Costumes by Robert Rosenwasser; WRITING GROUND; Sacred music from the Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Tibetan traditions; Lights by Axel Morgenthaler; Costumes and sets by Robert Rosenwasser; Alonzo King founded the Alonzo King Lines Ballet in 1982. 31 years later, it has become one of the world's most prestigious companies. Alonzo King is a great admirer of classical ballet, in which he sees a wonderful science of movement. To this virtuoso technique, he brings a physical, muscular sensuality, an almost feline fluidity refined to the point of pure esthetic pleasure. Meyer, his last creation, was premiered on the 30th anniversary of the company. Written in collaboration with American composer and bass player Edgar Meyer, the music brings purpose and rhythm to bodies and movement. Writing Ground draws its inspiration from the words of writer Colum McCann. In this piece, Alonzo King explores the wealth of traditional music from the Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Tibetan traditions. His choreography becomes a language, at once poetic and electrifying. Recorded at the Maison de la Danse in Lyon, 29 November 2013; Directed by Denis Caiozzi (86 min)
