Naissam Jalal, compositions, flute, nay; Leonardo Montant, piano; Claude Tchamitchian, bass; Harmid Drake, battery, drums; The flautist continues her search for meaning with a dream quartet to approach the mystical and spiritual side of jazz. From her early days, Naissam Jalal has been oscillating between the West, symbolized by the traverso she studied at the Conservatory, and the East, represented by the ney, which she studied with great masters in Damascus and Cairo. In residence at the Dynamo, she sets a new objective: to integrate improvised modal jazz with non-western traditions, like the Arab dhikr, the Indian raga, and Gnawa trance. A specialist of the genre, drummer and percussionist Hamid Drake immediately recognized in her the ability he himself acquired alongside Don Cherry and Pharoah Sanders. He is now part of the adventure. Recorded on 2017, March 28th at the Dynamo of Banlieues Bleues, Pantin, as part of the 'Banlieues Bleues' Festival; TV Director, Gilles Le Mao; 05.04.2020 (58 min)

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 (30 min)
