      • Gogo Penguin - Jazz á la Villette

        Gogo Penguin; Chris Illingworth (piano); Nick Blacka (bass); Rob Turner (drum kit); Décidément, les Britanniques excellent lorsqu'il s'agit d'ouvrir le jazz au public pop ou électro. GoGo Penguin, dans un style cette fois-ci purement acoustique, prend la reléve. Ces trois jeunes de Manchester, qui revendiquent ouvertement l'influence du pianiste Esbjörn Svensson, viennent de signer sur le prestigieux label Blue Note et défraient la chronique du côté des amateurs de jazz. La musique du trio est effectivement plus proche de la pop instrumentale que du bop! Ritournelles mélodiques entetantes, rythmiques jungle, harmonie stagnante pour un effet ambiant, morceaux en forme de crescendos... Voici la recette du succés! Recorded on September 7, 2016 at the Philharmonie de Paris, Jazz á la Villette; TV Director, Samuel Thiebaut (60 min)

      • We Love Ella - The Amazing Keystone Big Band

The guest singer, Célia Kaméni, does not attempt either to compete with or to imitate, that would be impossible anyway, the first lady of song gets to grips with her world in order to sing it better. And it works perfectly, and it has to be said that the orchestra is absolutely irreproachable with its waves of intensity, its stresses, an expressive clarity which gives it a very lare range of expression. It's all there, the phrasing, the accents, the rhythm, the groove, the drive this swing, this je ne sais quoi between individual liberty and collective happiness, put simply...Jazz!

      • Éric Legnini Trio - Jazz á la Villette

        Éric Legnini Trio; Éric Legnini Trio; Eric Legnini (piano); Rocky Gresset (guitar); Thomas Bramerie (double bass); A foot-stomping jazz, touched by soul and by funk. Eric Legnini's recording tryptich, begun in 2006 with Miss Soul (then Big Boogaloo and Trippin'), marking the magnificent first steps of a leader for a pianist with a hyper-sophisticated bop language as early as the middle of the 1990's alongside the saxophonist Stefano Di Battista. Since then, the Belgian musician, settled in Paris has led an eclectic career, multiplied collaborations with vocalists (his friend Huge Coltman amngst others) and regularly puts on his producer's hat. In this 2019 season, Eric Legnini is coming back to the trio, but this time without drums: he will be accompanied by the guitarist Rocky Gresset (a reference on the Gypsy jazz scene) and by Thomas Bramerie (long-time touring partner and very probably the most sought after Parisian bass player) with whom he will present a completely new repertoire.
