Rain Documentaru bu Gerard-Jan Claes, Olivia Rochette and Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker On 25 May 2011, the prestigious Ballet de l'Opéra national de Paris presented for the first time a choreography by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, 'Rain'. Film directors Olivia Rochette and Gerard-Jan Claes followed the rehearsals, from the first auditions to the opening night. The documentary focuses on the way De Keersmaeker and the dancers of Rosas transmit the choreographer's style to the classically-trained dancers. The formality of classical ballet gives way to the equally rigorous, mathematical structure of 'Rain', which nevertheless includes an important emotional element. A poetic documentary on experimentation, esthetics and doubt in the formal and sometimes oppressive world of opera.

Französische Suite Choreography by Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker Music Bach (Toccata extracts) Rosas Ballet Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker brings a strong desire to fruition: to work with the music of J. S. Bach, on the various movements of a Suite - allemande, courante, sarabande, gavotte, bourrée, loure, gigue -, with breakdance moves for the latter. The leitmotiv in Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker's work is to match a certain formalism and the transmission of an emotion, 'with all the unpredictable, anarchic and wild elements that may crop up', she says. 'Emotion and structure play against each other, adapt, and finally complement one another.' Recorded at Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie, Brussells on 2002 TV Director Pierre Barré and Thierry Loreau

Salif Keita Acoustic at the Carreau du Temple, Paris The 'Golden voice of Africa' was the first artist to perform at the Carreau du Temple, a 'new' Parisian venue, recently reopened after years of neglect. The inaugural concert, recorded on Friday 25 April 2014, was the perfect alliance of diverse cultures, carried by the high and powerful voice of this adoptive 'griot' - Salif Keita is a direct descendent of the Mali Empire's founder, Soundiata Keita - and a historical landmark, elegantly restored. Glass, cast iron, brick and wood have given a new life to this former market hall, whose Eiffel-style nineteenth century metallic structure is so typically Parisian. A historical venue and an artist who has freed himself from tradition and follows his own path. With Salif Keita, lyrics Aminata Danté et Bah Kouyaté, lyrics Mamadou Diabaté, Kora Souleymane Kouyaté, N'goni Guy Nwogang, drums Ousmane Kouyaté, Guitar Playlist : Katolon M'Bamba Tu vas me manquer (I miss you) Yamore Saranfino Namanamani Mandjoue kanté Coucou (Hello) Tekere Recorded at the Carreau du temple on March 2014 TV idrector, Josselin Carré

Michel Portal Quintet feat. Nils Wogram & Lander Gyselinck Michel Portal, clarinets, saxophone, bandoneon Nils Wogram, trombone Bojan Z, piano, keyboard Bruno Chevillon, double bass, bass Lander Gyselinck, drums An original musician, Michel Portal is a celebrity in the classical repertoire (Mozart, Schumann, Brahms, Berg) and contemporary music (Boulez, Stockausen, Berio, Kagel, Globokar). A virtuoso and something of a maverick, Portal is always up for musical experiments, exploring all kinds of fields! A regular guest at Europa Jazz over the past forty years, he has always delivered! This year, he presents a new project, involving Boyan Z and Bruno Chevillon, along with one of the greatest trombone players of today, Nils Wogram (who regularly plays with Bojan Z) and the new prodigy on the European jazz scene, young Belgian drummer Lander Gyselinck (Lab trio, Kris Defoort trio).

Featuring: Juliette, Vinicio Capossela, Andrés Calamaro Melingo with guests Juliette - Vinicio Capossela - Naissam Jalal live at the Festival d'Ile de France But who is Melingo? 
 Is he the Argentinian re-incarnation of Tom Waits or Nick Cave? The cheeky and dreamy voice from the suburbs of Buenos Aires? An errant rock tanguero with a penchant for poetry and freedom? 
 Probably a little bit of all this... As an artist he is definitely a maverick, a radical whose music reinvents a surrealist world.

A fiasco! No danger of this with the Magnetic Ensemble. They turned the Maison de la Culture into a proper dance floor. No beatbox for Antonin Leymarie's quintet. Why use one when you can do so much better yourself? Techno has not been very popular with jazzmen, largely for its lack of flexibility (a rigid tempo, a uniformity of sound). The Magnetic Ensemble picks up the challenge and demonstrates brilliantly that techno can be human, very human. Prepare yourself for a technoid trance, slow, progressive, polyrhythmic, irresistible, wild, frenzied. This music is made for movement! Recorded on November 12th at the festival D'Jazz Nevers (Nevers, France) - (Maison de la Culture, hall) TV Director, Samuel Thiebaut

The Lisbon Piece Choreography by Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker Music Thierry de Mey Rosas Ballet The Lisbon Piece is a tableau for classical ballet and percussions. Thierry De Mey, who composed some of the music, is a longtime collaborator of Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker's. 'Thierry has the same obsession for structure as I do', she says. 'He comes from the cinema and knows how to build bridges between the arts.' Anne Teresa has not done much classical ballet in her work as a choreographer, even though she admires the language and trained at the Mudra school. The Lisbon Piece is a particular case in the history of Rosas. A challenge. The dancers, wearing pointe shoes, move within a soundscape generated by an instrumentarium of which Thierry De Mey has the secret (paper drums, metallic sounds, whispers...) Recorded at Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie, Brussells on 2002 TV Director Pierre Barré and Thierry Loreau

Gregory Porter at the International Jazz Festival of Montréal 2016 Gregory Porter's musical awakening came upon hearing his mother's Nat King Cole records as a child - Porter would later write a show in homage to the singer. After seeing his dreams of professional football thwarted by a major injury, the California-born artist turned to music. With the help of his mentor, the multi-instrumentalist and composer Kamau Kenyatta, Porter honed his skills in San Diego jazz clubs before landing a role in the musical It Ain't Nothing But the Blues. His resume also includes a collaboration with famed flutist Hubert Laws. A gifted songwriter, he penned most of the jazz and soul-oriented material appearing on his first albums, Water (2010), Be Good (2012) and Liquid Spirit (2013), winner of a Grammy for Best jazz vocal album. Recorded on June 29th at the Théâtre Maisonneuve, Montréal TV direction by Mathieu Mastin

Hugh Masekela celebrates Mama Afrika Hugh MASEKELA flugelhorn, vocals / Cameron WARD guitar / Fana ZULU bass / Randal SKIPPERS keyboards / Lee-Roy SAULS drums / Francis Manneh FUSTER percussions With Abdullah Ibrahim, Masekela is one of the pioneering figures of South African jazz. With his music, the trumpeter, flugelhornist, singer and composer has strongly influenced the political emergence of the anti-apartheid movement which he helped bring to international attention, through noted performances such as the one he gave in Monterey alongside Otis Redding and Jimi Hendrix back in 1967, or his appearance on Paul Simon's multi-million selling Graceland album. Fresh from his presence at Barack Obama's second inauguration ball, Masekela will present his latest project at Parc Floral, a celebration of his late wife, South African diva Miriam Makeba.
