Zakir Hussain (tabla) Chris Potter (saxophone) Dave Holland (double bass) The Indian composer and percussionist Zakir Hussain is THE tabla player of his generation. The tabla is a percussion instrument from the north of India which does indeed give rhythm to the musician's compositions as much when he is performing solo as here when he is accompanied by the bass player Dave Holland or the tenor saxophonist Chris Potter. Considered as a national treasure in India, this artist accrues performances with no less than 150 concerts per year and a career which began at 12 years of age! Perhaps the most impressive virtuoso of the tenor saxophone according to Michel Contat of Télérama, Chris Potter comes from the generation of saxophonists who came to the fore during the course of the 1990's alongside Joshua Redman, James Carter, Chris Cheek and Seamus Blake. Very quickly, this native of Chicago attracted attention because of his succulent tenor sound and a very personal manner of constructing his solos, imposing himself as a reference amongst his peers. Dave Holland's class! This majestic double bass with a round sound. A self-taught double bass player whose atypical manner of playing and magnificent sound were quickly noticed by a certain Miles Davis. A great composer as well. A great leader too.Together with Miles Davis, Chick Corea, Stan Getz or heading up his own groups, the Brit could never be happy with the minimum. Recorded at Jazz in Marciac Festival (Circus top), on July 28, 2018 TV Director, Jean-Marc Birraux

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.

Ornette | Apparitions Antonin Tri Hoangn, Alto saxophone , clarinet, Geoiffroy Gesser, Tenor saxophone , Pierre Borel, Amtp saxophone, Aymeric Avice, trompet, Isabel Sörling, voice, Romain Clerc-Renaud, piano, Keyboard, Thibault Cellier, double bass, Yann Joussein, drums, Elie Duris, drums La musique d'Ornette Coleman a changé le cours des choses. On a parlé de free jazz, mais ' ce n'est pas un autre jazz, c'est une musique autre, créative '. Depuis ses débuts (dans l'ONJ de Daniel Yvinec), Antonin Tri Hoang n'est pas sans évoquer Ornette : même lyrisme tarabiscoté, même goût du dérapage contrôlé. Au lieu d'une dissertation sur l'œuvre, il a proposé des rêves, des ponts évocateurs, ' pas un revival, mais un survival '. Avec, aux manettes, le quartette Novembre et des invités qui maîtrisent à la perfection l'art du zapping et du collage. Ce qui n'est pas sans rappeler John Zorn, un autre grand fils (spirituel) d'Ornette. Recorde on April 19 avril 2016 at Banlieues Bleues, MC93 TV Director, Stéphane Jourdain

Irlandais 'The Adults in the room ' , Jon Irabagon ' Paul Robeson ', Sylvain Rifflet & Jon Irabagon Pour le 30ème festival Banlieues Bleues, Sylvain Rifflet et Jon Irabagon avaient créé une passionnante célébration de la musique de Moondog. Les voici à nouveau réunis, au sein d'un quartet exceptionnel (avec Jim Black et Sébastien Boisseau) avec une nouvelle idée fixe: explorer un thème plutôt qu'un compositeur, quitte à se laisser surprendre. C'est dans l'histoire et l'actualité qu'ils se sont inspirés, d'Olympe de Gouges à Emma Gonzales, des droits civiques à la justice climatique, à la recherche de grands discours de rébellion(s) à mettre en sons, pour souffler dans leurs saxophones comme sur des braises...
