Laurent Bardainne ' Tigre d'Eau Douce ' - Jazz á la Villette
LLaurent Bardainne ' Tigre d'Eau Douce '; Laurent Bardainne (Tenor saxophone ); Arnaud Roulin (Hammond organ); Sylvain Daniel (bass); Philippe Gleizes (drums); Tenor saxophonist, Laurent Bardainne is one of the most discreet and yet active musicians on the Paris scene. It is difficult not to come across him when you like jazz and its related music: we can hear him in the Supersonic by Thomas de Pourquery, alongside Camélia Jordana with Lost, with his rock group Poni Hoax, in the electro detours Sabrina & Samantha, and even at the heart of Limousine, with whom he released an excellent recording in the spring. L'Été suivant. Laurent Bardainne comes back today with this incredibly free quartet, entitled Tigre d'Eau Douce. Music which recalls Albert Ayler's Laments and John Coltrane's freeest hours, all of which is crisscrossed by ballads and soothing moments in the colours of Soul spirituality played out on the Hammond B3 organ by Arnaud Roulin. Recorded on August 29, 2019 at the Grande Halle de la Villette, Jazz á la Villette; TV Director, David Unger 07.03.2020 (30 min)

Christian Sands Trio - Jazz á la Villette
Christian Sands Trio - 'Tribute to Erroll Garner'; Christian Sands (piano); Terreon Gully (guitar); Luques Curtis (bass); Whereas he has just released a really great album, Facing Dragons only a few months ago, the pianist Christian Sands is presenting to kick off the season a new repertoire as a tribute to Erroll Garner: one of the most important figures in the history of jazz, he who established the form of the ' piano trio ' in the modern era, only just before Bill Evans. So he is reaching for a very high goal. And you can bet that the challenge will be met with brio, because the young American is one of the most talented pianists of his generation: protégé of the immense late Billy Taylor, taken on by Christian McBride at 20, recognised by Wynton Marsalis who saw in him one of the grate heirs of the tradition, Christian Sands does actually possess an instrumental language which alludes to the whole history of his instrument, but still succeeds in remaining extremely modern.
