      • Hugh Coltman - Jazz in Marciac

        Hugh Coltman (voice); Frédéric Couderc (baritone clarinet); Jérôme Etcheberry (trumpet); Jerry Edwards (trombone); Didier Havet (soubassophone); Freddy Koella (guitar); Gael Rakotondrabe (piano); Raphael Chassin (drums); Heard in the company of the pianist Eric Legnini on an album where he was simply a guest, Hugh Coltman rapidly broke the barrier of confidentiality to gain access to the the antechamber of notoriety. His latest hour of glory (for the time being), was his allegorical project based on the repertoire of Nat King Cole, the historic crooner and pianist. The voice of this Brit possesses that full masculinity which characterises his dedicatee, but it carries with it a bit of spleen, a sort of Baudelairian charm which the language of Shakespeare makes even more palpable...A confirmation eagerly awaited in Marciac this summer with his new album 'Who's happy?'. With drums which dance just like in one of those legendary burials in New Orleans, brass saturated with soul, guitars mixing up all the blues and all the folk... Hugh Coltman treated himself to a sublime backdrop for eleven songs in which his warm 'been through it all' voice can be heard. He is a conoisseur in human emotions, always charitable towards the evening's lover, the lost soul at dawn or the forlorn in the blazing sunshine. Recorded at Jazz in Marciac Festival (Circus top), on July 31, 2018; TV Director, Jean-Marc Birraux (64 min)

      • Eric Truffaz Quartet - Jazz in Marciac

        Erik Truffaz (trumpet); Marcello Giuliani (bass); Benoît Corboz piano (Fender Rhodes); Marc Erbetta (drums); With special guests; Nya (voice); Guillaume Perret (saxophone); The trumpet player of Swiss origin, Erik Truffaz,is one of the first European jazzmen to have successfully approached drum'n'bass. In 1991 he founded a quartet which today is composed of Benoît Corboz (keyboards), Marcello Giuliani (bass) and Marc Erbetta (drums and percussion),he explores electronic jazz-fusion much in the same way as Miles Davis and recorded several albums starting from 1994. After an incursion into into rock at the head of his Ladybird Quartet created in 2001, he returned to the formula which had made him successful. In his world, always deeply influenced by Miles Davis, the stridencies of rock alternate with the poetic respites, the rousing grooves with more calm ballads. Recorded at Jazz in Marciac Festival (Circus top), on August 6, 2018; TV Director, Jean-Marc Birraux 13.03.2021 (59 min)

      • Rymden - Tourcoing Jazz Festival

        Rymden; Bugge Wesseltoft, piano; Dan Berglund; double bass; Magnus Ostrom, drums; When the rhythmic section of the mythical Swedish jazz group played again for the first time in trio since the passing of Esbjörn Svensson, it produces Rymden (space in the French version) - logical for blokes who are into atmospheric sounds. Alongside them, one of the most exciting pianists of the Nordic jazz scene. Founder of the thrilling label Jazzland and pillar of cross-overs between impro and electro, Bugge Wesseltoft is very much an ideal playing partner. A 'young' trio filled with experience (s).
