Naïssam Jalal, compositions, flute, nay Leonardo Montant, piano Claude Tchamitchian, bass Harmid Drake, battery, drums The flautist continues her search for meaning with a dream quartet to approach the mystical and spiritual side of jazz. From her early days, Naissam Jalal has been oscillating between the West, symbolized by the traverso she studied at the Conservatory, and the East, represented by the ney, which she studied with great masters in Damascus and Cairo. In residence at the Dynamo, she sets a new objective: to integrate improvised modal jazz with non-western traditions, like the Arab dhikr, the Indian raga, and Gnawa trance. A specialist of the genre, drummer and percussionist Hamid Drake immediately recognized in her the ability he himself acquired alongside Don Cherry and Pharoah Sanders. He is now part of the adventure. Recorded on 2017, March 28th at the Dynamo of Banlieues Bleues, Pantin, as part of the 'Banlieues Bleues' Festival TV Director, Gilles Le Mao

Troyka Chris Montague - guitar, loop Joshua Blackmore - drums Kit Downes - organ Troyka are rooted in the jazz tradition and are at the same time hiply contemporary. Atmospheres often change in a single piece, almost to the point of paradox: hard and aggressive guitar riffs mix with gentle keyboard motifs, while composition and improvisation combine as one. This blend of garage rock, jazz improvisations and dance music defies labelling: the band sound like 'King Crimson for the iPod generation,' as the London listings magazine 'Time Out' put it. One thing is for sure: this trio forms part of a generation of young musicians who reject the limits of genre, with the decisive question no longer 'What is it?' but 'Is it good?'.

Anne Paceo, Bright Shadows Anne Paceo, drums, voix Tony Paeleman, keyboard Christophe Panzani, saxophone Pierre Perchaud, guitar Florent Matéo, voice Ann Shirley, voice With Bright Shadows, Anne Paceo seems resolutely determined to pursue her melodic and sound explorations based on voices and electronics, playing therefore in between the frontiers of musical genres. She is joined this time by two delicate and unclassifiable voices (Florent Mateo and Ann Shirley) and by three faithful and precious companions (Pierre Perchaud, Christophe Panzani et Tony Paeleman).

Dhafer Youssef, Diwan of Beauty And Odd Dhafer Youssef, oud and voice Aaron Parks, piano Ben Williams, bass Justin Faulkner, drums Ambrose Akinmusire, trumpet After the phenomenal success of his previous album 'Birds Requiem', which sold over 50,000 copies, Dhafer Youssef, the master of the oud, an exceptional singer and prolific composer, returns to the concert platform with one of the most anticipated albums of 2016: 'Diwan Of Beauty And Odd'. Dhafer Youssef is definitely one of the most innovative musicians of the decade.

The result is complex and mesmerising, beautiful and universal. Recorded on April 14th at L'Olympia, Paris TV director , Laurent Hasse

Respectful to his elders (Dolphy, Coleman, Mingus...) but free of musical clans, the powerful Californian saxophonist, a real phenomenon, assures his singularity on stage.

The Afternoon of a Faun choreography by Thierry Malandain A ballet for one dancer Music by Claude Debussy Arnaud Mahouy, The Faun Premiered by the Ballets Russes on 29 May 1912 and choreographed by Vaslav Nijinsky on music by Claude Debussy, with sets and costumes by Léon Bakst, the ballet is adapted from a poem by Stéphane Mallarmé. A faun is lying on a rocky mound as a group of nymphs appears. He watches them and comes closer. Frightened, they all flee, except for one. As he tries to catch her, she escapes and drops a veil on the ground. The faun seizes the veil, takes it back to his mound and lies down on it, as in an act of love. 'In this argument, I am mostly interested in the faun's desire and in the expression of sensuality through dream and fantasy. There are no references to Ancient Greece or to wooded landscapes, and Léon Bakst's mound on which the faun is perched is now a box of Kleenex. The novelty of the original choreography and the 'beastly' erotic gestures by Nijinsky caused a furore when the piece was premiered. In this performance, carnal pleasure is as central as in the original, and my faun is steeped in a world of fantasy and sensuality. The main difference is that he is not a mythical creature, half-man, half-beast, but a lonely young man, overwhelmed with desire and the memory of love.' T. Malandain.

The William Parker Organ Quartet William Parker, doublebass Cooper-Moore, keyboard James Brandon Lewis, tenor saxophone Hamid Drake, drums The New York-based bass player is back with a groundbreaking organ quartet, and his music is more soul-based than ever - thrills are guaranteed! A former member of David S. Ware's and Cecil Taylor's bands, William Parker is, more than a sought-after sideman, a major jazz composer in his own right, constantly reinventing musical codes. The double bass player has made his mark as a leader capable of bringing together a number of loose electrons. Such is the case with this brilliant quartet: amazing drummer Hamid Drake, esoteric keyboard player Cooper-Moore and eclectic saxophonist James Brandon Lewis. Three fantastic partners, exploring a form of spiritual jazz that should touch us deep in our souls. Recorded on Marche 28th 2017 at the Dynamo of Banlieues Bleues, Pantin, as part of the 'Banlieues Bleues' Festival TV Director, Guillaume Dero
