      • Juan Carmona Septet - Jazz á Vienne

        Juan Carmona Septet; Juan Carmona (guitar, composition); Piculabe (Voice); Noemie Humanes (Voice), Gest dancer, Paco Carmona (guitar), Domingo Patricio (flute), Kike Terron (percussions), El Bachi (bass); Juan Carmona is one of a kind in modern flamenco. A French gypsy of Andalusian origin, born in Lyon (in 1963), loyal to the Aubagne region where he plays out his passion (and where he runs the Nuits Flamencas festival), the guitarist has won countless prizes and awards and is renowned in Spain and around the world. Carmona spent ten years living in Jerez de la Frontera in Andalusia to gain in-depth knowledge of the flamenco culture. Whilst there he performed with singers such as Agujetas and Duquende and recorded with Chano Domínguez, the Cadix pianist, among others. The Frenchman's rich array of sounds, ingenious compositions, pure instrumentals and, most importantly, his talent for improvisation in this harmonic jazz-heavy piece, makes him one of the most respected guitarists in the last 30 years. Alchemya (2013) is still a flamboyant self-portrait of a record blending flamenco with jazz fusion. With his 35 guest cadors, Juan Carmona also gives us a great lesson in the art of hospitality. The borderless musician returned from an Asian tour with Perla de Oriente in 2016 with an album recorded live in the studio. A new travel journal in which the gypsy wanders the duende paths alongside El Piculabe's​ raspy melismas. Recorded on July 03, 2019 at Jazz á Vienne; TV Director, MFabien Raymond 19.11.2022 P10063026 (60 min)

      • Juditha Triumphans by Vivaldi at the Greek National Opera

        Juditha triumphans; Oratorio by Antonio Vivadi (1678 – 1741); Librettto by Iacopo Cassetti; Armonia Atenea, Il Pomo d'Oro, GNO Chorus, GNO Children's Choir, Markellos Chryssicos (Conductor); Agathangelos Georgakatos (Chorus Master), Konstantina Pitsiakou (Children’s Chorus Master); Thanos Papakonstantinou (Stage Direction); Christina Thanasoula (Lighting), Niki Psychogiou (Costumes), Niki Psychogiou (Sets), Amalia Kosma (Choreography); Roxana Constantinescu (Juditha); Kristina Hammarström (Holofernes); Inga Kalna (Vagaus); Theodora Baka (Abra); Sophia Patsi (Ozias); Athens, Greek National Opera, Stavros Niarchos Hall, 20 April 2021; Juditha triumphans was based on a Latin libretto by Iacopo Cassetti, which was in turn inspired by the Book of Judith from the Old Testament. The king of Babylon Nebuchadnezzar sends his general, Holofernes, to conquer the city of Bethulia in Israel. To save her Israelite compatriots, courageous Judith decides to seduce Holofernes. When he falls asleep, she cuts his head off. Juditha triumphans is the only extant oratorio of the four that Vivaldi composed. The intense war atmosphere is conveyed through the dynamic choral parts, and Judith’s faith and integrity through the lyrical and tender writing. Notable is the use of many different and relatively rare instruments, such as the viola d’amore, chalumeaux, and theorbos, used by Vivaldi to highlight the most significant moments.
