Avishai Cohen quartet - D'jazz Nevers
Avishai Cohen quartet @ D'Jazz Nevers; Avishai Cohen, trumpet; Yonathan Avisahi, piano; Yoni Zelnik, bass; Jonathan Black, drums; Dream Like a child, Into the Silence; Quiescence; Behind the broken glass; Bill Evans has two incarnations, as a pianist and a saxophonist. So has Avishai Cohen, a bass player and, tonight, a trumpeter. His musical friendships are long standing. For a decade now, he has been playing with pianist Yonathan Avishai, and hooked up with Nasheet Waits as soon as he arrived in New York from Israel in the 90's. His beard may be on the wild side, but his sound on the trumpet is one of the purest you can hear today. His first album for ECM, 'Into the Silence', was composed six months after Cohen's father died. 'Into the Silence' is about absence, a pregnant silence, deeply intimate, which does not preclude a sense of revolt, rich with vital energy. On four consecutive years, Cohen was voted 'Rising Star' in the 'trumpeter' category by DownBeat, the reference American jazz magazine. An absolute must. Recorded on November 11th at the festival D'Jazz Nevers (Nevers, France) - (Maison de la Culture, Philippe Genty hall); TV Director, Samuel Thiebaut (56 min)
Magnetic Ensemble - D'Jazz Nevers
Magnetic Ensemble @ D'Jazz Nevers; Antonin Leymarie, artistic direction, composition, drums; Benjamin Flament, treated metallic percussions, vibraphone; Sylvain Lemetre, digital and orchestral percussions; Linda Olah, voice; Fabrizio Rat, prepared piano; Adrien Spirli, bass synthesizer; Adrian'Aladin' Bourget, sound designer; Thomas Veyssiére, scenoraphy, lights; Guest; François Corneloup, saxophone; In my heart (Antonin Leymarie); Victory (Antonin Leymarie, Marine Pellegrini); S'abaisse (Antonin Leymarie); Butterfly (Antonin Leymarie); La Fabuleuse (Antonin Leymarie); Dancing Alone (Antonin Leymarie); What to you call a birthday party that doesn't end on the dance floor? A fiasco! No danger of this with the Magnetic Ensemble. They turned the Maison de la Culture into a proper dance floor. No beatbox for Antonin Leymarie's quintet. Why use one when you can do so much better yourself? Techno has not been very popular with jazzmen, largely for its lack of flexibility (a rigid tempo, a uniformity of sound). The Magnetic Ensemble picks up the challenge and demonstrates brilliantly that techno can be human, very human. Prepare yourself for a technoid trance, slow, progressive, polyrhythmic, irresistible, wild, frenzied. This music is made for movement! Recorded on November 12th at the festival D'Jazz Nevers (Nevers, France) - (Maison de la Culture, hall); TV Director, Samuel Thiebaut (50 min)
Soundprints feat. Joe Lovano & Dave Douglas - Roma Jazz Festival
SOUND PRINTS; Joe Lovano, saxophones; Dave Douglas, trumpet; Lawrence Fields, piano; Linda Oh, double bass; Joey Baron, drums. Joe Lovano and Dave Douglas are two one-of-a-kind world-class saxophonist and trumpeter. They both possess very strong personalities that produce vital and elegant music marked by virtuoso pieces that nonetheless sound very new and expressive, while at the same time displaying strong ties to the whole jazz tradition. This outstanding duo will pay an enthusiastic and fascinating tribute to Wayne Shorter, great composer and undisputed genius of the saxophone. Lovano and Douglas will bring to the stage some of Shorter's compositions that they have exclusively arranged for this project, as well as original songs. The result is a musical wonder, in which sounds from the past meet both the present and the future. The extravagant quality of their jazz will surprise you for its complexity, sophistication, but also for its emotional drive. Auditorium Parco della Musica - Rome (56 min)
