      • Emile Parisien, Vincent Peirani - 'File under Zawinul' - Jazz á Vienne

        Emile Parisien et Vincent Peirani; File under Zawinul; Emile Parisien, Saxophone soprano; Vincent Peirani, Accordion; Manu Codjia, Guitar; Paco Séry,Drums; Linley Marthe, Bass; Mino Cinelu, Percussion; Aziz Samahoui, Vocal, percussion; Tony Paeleman, Fender Rhodes; 2017 is the 10th anniversary of Joe Zawinul's death, the high priest of jazz keyboardists. A fitting and powerful tribute to him comes from saxophonist Emile Parisien and partner in crime Vincent Peirani on the accordion. The two Frenchmen have brought their fellow Austrian 'groove' explorers on board: Paco Sery and Linley Marthe, respectively drummer and bassist in the Zawinul Syndicate (his last group) and West Indian percussionist Mino Cinelu who performed on the last albums for the game-changing Weather Report. The idea behind the File Under Zawinul project came from saxophonist Emile Parisien's time with the Syndicate, a band formed in tribute to the Viennese pianist. Parisien met the vibrant guitarist Manu Codjia and sound architect Tony Paeleman on his Fender Rhodes at the Syndicate who are both to join File Under Zawinul. The Moroccan singer and percussionist Aziz Samahoui who performed with Joe for over 10 years will also be part of the international all-star Zawinul line-up. Recorded on 2017, July 04th at the Jazz Festival in Vienne; TV Director, Fabien Raymond (60 min)

      • Yaron Herman Trio - Jazz á Vienne

        Yaron Herman trio; Yaron Herman, Piano, KIeyboard; Bastien Burger, Bass, Vocal, Keyboard; Ziv Ravitz, drums, electronics; Everyday, his duo with Ziv Ravitz in 2015 and first album for Blue Note, the first disc with songs, felt like a comeback for Yaron Herman. The French-Israeli's latest album, 'Y', is a real melting pot of all his influences. His inspirations are explored with pure elegance be they jazz, post-rock or electro by Sufjan Stevens, Steve Reich or Keith Jarrett. Better still, instead of covering mainstream songs like he used to (from Britney Spears to Radiohead), he's made his own songs with or without vocals, words or choruses. Perhaps we have the Arles Photography Festival (2015) to thank for that along with his encounter with Matthieu Chedid (singer on Saisons Contradictoires), friendship with the bassist from The Do Bastien Burger (co-producer on the album) and his discovery of the young French electro-pop producer Dream Koala (guest on Solaire). Yaron Herman is definitely back. Recorded on 2017, July 4th at the Jazz Festival in Vienne; TV Director, Fabien Raymond (61 min)
