Gilberto Gil Gilberto Gil guitar, voice Thiagô Queiroz saxophone, flute Diogo Gomes trumpet, bugle Bem Gil musical director , guitar, voice Danilo Andrade keyboard, piano Bruno Di Lullo bass Jose Gil batterie, percussion Domenico Lancellotti drums, percussion Nara Gil voice, chorus Guitarist, singer and composer, emblematic figure of Brazilian music, Gilberto Passos Gil Moreira, known as Gilberto Gil, began as a bossa nova singer, but above all made a name for himself by composing and performing with his friend Caetano Veloso, songs focusing on politics and social engagement. Made famous by his participation in the 1960's, in the Tropicalist Movement, he was imprisoned, and forced into exile by the military regime established in 1964. Once back in Brazil, he went into politics whilst continuing his artistic career. Municipal Councilor in Salvador de Bahia he then became Minister of culture for the government of Lula da Silva. His return to Marciac where he presented his latest album marked the apotheosis of an evening entirely devoted to popular Brazilian music. From muted sambas to classy bossas, they are part of popular Brazilian music that the musician in his seventies has always stood up for. An accessible, captivating, natural music which from the first notes already appears to be familiar to us. Recorded on August 05, 2019 at Jazz in Marciac TV Director,

After soul sister Macy Gray, with whom he recorded an album, the ever-inventive saxophonist brings us a brand new body of work inspired by the slam poetry of Saul Williams. DAVID MURRAY tenor saxophone, bass clarinett, ORIN EVANS piano, JARIBU SHAHID bass, NASHEET WAITS drums, SAUL WILLIAMS voice He appears with the Infinity Quartet, named after his early years at the Infinity loft-studio in New York, and with Saul Williams himself. A great choice: over the past fifteen years, the star of the independent film 'Slam' has been standing out among rappers and slam poets with the quality of his writing and the intensity of his performances. His punch lines make him a unique performer - a remarkable poet with a powerful rap-soul voice. In David Murray, who previously worked with writers Amiri Baraka and Ishmael Reed, Williams has found an ideal partner. A match made in heaven.

Roberto Fonseca Roberto Fonseca piano, claviers Joe Lovano saxophone Yandy Martinez contrebasse, basse Ruly Herrera batterie Andres Coayo Batista percussions Omara Portuondo voix Mayra Andrade voix Rossio Jimenez Blanco chœur Like all musicians born in Cuba and having grown-up in Havana, Roberto Fonseca came out of school ready for work. This multi-disciplinary aptitude enabled numerous projects and encounters. His contribution to Latin music was to have extended his roots into contemporary expression, often with instrumentation closer to that of modern jazz, and this, whilst not losing one ounce of poetry. Because it really is this capacity to make his public dream which characterises this composer/singer/arranger that his female admirers recognise from afar because of the hat which never leaves him and close up by the harmonious lines of his face. Adding on successes in Marciac like so many pearls on his musical necklace, Roberto Fonseca could almost stake claim to having the status of an event organiser. Using ingredients which guarantee his artistic longevity in the domain of Afrocubanism, he put on stage a new group of which the guests are Omara Portuondo, Mayra Andrade, Joe Lovano and an orchestra of pupils from the conservatoires of the Occitanie Region, conducted by Jean-Pierre Peyrebelle.

For a long time, this drummer-and-singer, brought up on Batá drums and the Santeria cult in Havana, was an ardent sideman with Bruce Springsteen, Meshell Ndegeocello and Sting. The following years in residence at a Manhattan restaurant made him the charismatic leader of a fusion quartet. Deeply attached to the Afro-cuban dance and Yoruba prayers of his youth, Pedrito Martinez fuses them with the soul, pop and rock sounds of New York. A heady Afro-cuban mix.

Lucky Peterson, tribute to Jimmy Smith Lucky Peterson (organ, lyric) Nicolas Fomer (trumpet) Kekyn Crapp (guitar) Ahmad Compaoré (drums) Twelve years after the death of Jimmy Smith, Lucky Peterson, pays a tribute to the master of the Hammond organ.' My father brought me up on blues before I could even walk, and I played the organ before having learnt to speak.'Lucky Peterson, The precocious, classy little baby's bottle was thrown into music as soon as he was born.To this die-hard blues man, who is the guardian of the flame, he was able to add a well-chosen dose of groove. There is no doubt that it was a suitable way to honour Jimmy Smith, who was a reference in the realm of jazz soul and with whom he had exchanged in his youth. Finally this dive into history reminds us how much the hymns of the 1950's and 1960's remain incredibly sensual, enough to encourage the choir of a church to dance...

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

The Rosenberg Family Project The Rosenbergs Mozes Rosenberg guitar solo Johnny Rosenberg rythmic guitar Sani van Mullem double bass The Rosenberg trio Stochelo Rosenberg guitar solo Nonnie Rosenberg double bass In the world of gipsy jazz, Stochelo Rosenberg stands out as a virtuoso tempered by a natural elegance meaning he never overdoes things. With him, the competitive cutting guitar playing mixes in with a kind of nervous and swinging poetry where the themes from the traditional repertoire alternate with the most unexpected revivals. In the Rosenberg family, everyone is made for extended improvisation, they devote themselves to their high-speed chases with such elegance and implication that we find ourselves rediscovering pleasures procured through this craftsmanship of oral transmission, served up by devils who play like gods Recorded on July 31, 2019 at Jazz in Marciac TV Director,

Extended Hanoi Duo Nguyên Lê, electric and accoustic guitar Ngo Hong Quang, traditional instruments, voice Mieko Miyazaki, koto Paolo Fresu, trumpet Edouard Prabhu, tabals Alex Tran, percussions Hao Nhiem Pham, flute The celebrated French-Vietnamese guitarist Nguyên Lê is a masterful, inventive player who has cultivated a wholly unique voice on the instrument, ranking right up there with Bill Frisell, John Scofield, Mike Stern and Allan Holdsworth in the post-Hendrix world of jazz guitar. He has developed a distinctive sound that draws upon rock, funk and jazz as well as traditional Algerian, Indian and Vietnamese styles. His ethereal and colourful music acts like a powerful detonator which every time creates new and unheard soundscapes. On his latest album he teams up with young traditionalist singer Ngo Hong Quang, on lute, Vietnamese fiddle, Jew's harp, to portray 'the soul of Vietnam' and its quickening evolution. There are jaunty folkish tunes, temple bells and ethereal melodies, and a storm of electric guitars. Nguyên's life-long friend, the famous Italian trumpeter Paolo Fresu adds elegant Miles Davis-like peaks to a powerful, fauvism-coloured fusion of ancient and modern.

The comet is coming Shabaka Hutchings, saxophone ténor Dan Leavers, synthétiseur Max Hallet, batterie Sixty years after Sun Ra released his debut album, the influence of the late avant garde jazz musician and 'cosmic philosopher' persists. Sun Ra is a clear touchstone for futurists band The Comet is coming. They're formed of saxophonist Shabaka Hutchings (aka King Shabaka), and the two members of Soccer96: synths guy Dan Leavers (aka Danalogue The Conqueror) and drums man Maxwell Hallett (aka Betamax Killer). Formed in 2013 after saxophonist Shabaka Hutchings spontaneously joined funk duo Soccer96 on stage, the trio combines Sun Ra's mythological themes and love of the experimental, whipping up a fusion of jazz, Afrobeat and electronica in an improvisational, intergalactic mash-upstyle, starting with an orthodox jazz sensibility and taking it to the dancefloor. For millennia, humankind has viewed comets as harbingers of doom, portents of change and destruction. The Comet Is Coming are here to recognize these world-altering prophecies and to help us dance like it's the end of the world.

Christian Sands Trio - 'Tribute to Erroll Garner' Christian Sands (piano) Terreon Gully (drums) Luques Curtis (bass) Whereas he has just released a really great album, Facing Dragons only a few months ago, the pianist Christian Sands is presenting to kick off the season a new repertoire as a tribute to Erroll Garner : one of the most important figures in the history of jazz, he who established the form of the ' piano trio ' in the modern era, only just before Bill Evans. So he is reaching for a very high goal. And you can bet that the challenge will be met with brio, because the young American is one of the most talented pianists of his generation : protégé of the immense late Billy Taylor, taken on by Christian McBride at 20, recognised by Wynton Marsalis who saw in him one of the grate heirs of the tradition, Christian Sands does actually possess an instrumental language which alludes to the whole history of his instrument, but still succeeds in remaining extremely modern.

Christian Sands Trio - 'Tribute to Erroll Garner' Christian Sands (piano) Terreon Gully (drums) Luques Curtis (bass) Whereas he has just released a really great album, Facing Dragons only a few months ago, the pianist Christian Sands is presenting to kick off the season a new repertoire as a tribute to Erroll Garner : one of the most important figures in the history of jazz, he who established the form of the ' piano trio ' in the modern era, only just before Bill Evans. So he is reaching for a very high goal. And you can bet that the challenge will be met with brio, because the young American is one of the most talented pianists of his generation : protégé of the immense late Billy Taylor, taken on by Christian McBride at 20, recognised by Wynton Marsalis who saw in him one of the grate heirs of the tradition, Christian Sands does actually possess an instrumental language which alludes to the whole history of his instrument, but still succeeds in remaining extremely modern.

Roberto Fonseca Roberto Fonseca piano, claviers Joe Lovano saxophone Yandy Martinez contrebasse, basse Ruly Herrera batterie Andres Coayo Batista percussions Omara Portuondo voix Mayra Andrade voix Rossio Jimenez Blanco chœur Like all musicians born in Cuba and having grown-up in Havana, Roberto Fonseca came out of school ready for work. This multi-disciplinary aptitude enabled numerous projects and encounters. His contribution to Latin music was to have extended his roots into contemporary expression, often with instrumentation closer to that of modern jazz, and this, whilst not losing one ounce of poetry. Because it really is this capacity to make his public dream which characterises this composer/singer/arranger that his female admirers recognise from afar because of the hat which never leaves him and close up by the harmonious lines of his face. Adding on successes in Marciac like so many pearls on his musical necklace, Roberto Fonseca could almost stake claim to having the status of an event organiser. Using ingredients which guarantee his artistic longevity in the domain of Afrocubanism, he put on stage a new group of which the guests are Omara Portuondo, Mayra Andrade, Joe Lovano and an orchestra of pupils from the conservatoires of the Occitanie Region, conducted by Jean-Pierre Peyrebelle.

Bojan adds Fender Rhodes to his acoustic piano play in which be-bop lines fit in seamlessly with dance rhythms, funky backbeats and folk-tinged improvisations. For his unusual new quartet based on winds, his creation in residence, he works once again with his musician friend, the celebrated Italian trumpet player Paolo Fresu.

Hindi Zahra et Fatoumata Diawara Olympic Café Tour Banlieues Bleues Festival Hindi Zahra, voice Fatoumata Diawara, voice, guitar Yacouba Kone, guitar, keyboards, Sekou Bah, bass Zé Luis Nascimento, drums This new production celebrates a friendship born ten years ago far from the limelight, when these two singers first shared the stage. That was in the early 2000's, before success came. At the time, Hindi Zahra and Fatoumata Diawara often appeared at the Olympic Café, a classic venue for new music, in the Paris district of 'La Goutte d'Or'. The two singers soon made a name for themselves, building bridges between cultures and making modern Africa shine in the world. Today, they revisit their early days, their friendship bringing together inventive folk music and soul. Recorded on 2017 19th March at the Pôle musical d'Orgemont, Epinay-sur-Seine , as part of the 'Banlieues Bleues' Festival TV Director, Laurent Hasse

After soul sister Macy Gray, with whom he recorded an album, the ever-inventive saxophonist brings us a brand new body of work inspired by the slam poetry of Saul Williams. DAVID MURRAY tenor saxophone, bass clarinett, ORIN EVANS piano, JARIBU SHAHID bass, NASHEET WAITS drums, SAUL WILLIAMS voice He appears with the Infinity Quartet, named after his early years at the Infinity loft-studio in New York, and with Saul Williams himself. A great choice: over the past fifteen years, the star of the independent film 'Slam' has been standing out among rappers and slam poets with the quality of his writing and the intensity of his performances. His punch lines make him a unique performer - a remarkable poet with a powerful rap-soul voice. In David Murray, who previously worked with writers Amiri Baraka and Ishmael Reed, Williams has found an ideal partner. A match made in heaven.

Extended Hanoi Duo Nguyên Lê, electric and accoustic guitar Ngo Hong Quang, traditional instruments, voice Mieko Miyazaki, koto Paolo Fresu, trumpet Edouard Prabhu, tabals Alex Tran, percussions Hao Nhiem Pham, flute The celebrated French-Vietnamese guitarist Nguyên Lê is a masterful, inventive player who has cultivated a wholly unique voice on the instrument, ranking right up there with Bill Frisell, John Scofield, Mike Stern and Allan Holdsworth in the post-Hendrix world of jazz guitar. He has developed a distinctive sound that draws upon rock, funk and jazz as well as traditional Algerian, Indian and Vietnamese styles. His ethereal and colourful music acts like a powerful detonator which every time creates new and unheard soundscapes. On his latest album he teams up with young traditionalist singer Ngo Hong Quang, on lute, Vietnamese fiddle, Jew's harp, to portray 'the soul of Vietnam' and its quickening evolution. There are jaunty folkish tunes, temple bells and ethereal melodies, and a storm of electric guitars. Nguyên's life-long friend, the famous Italian trumpeter Paolo Fresu adds elegant Miles Davis-like peaks to a powerful, fauvism-coloured fusion of ancient and modern.

For a long time, this drummer-and-singer, brought up on Batá drums and the Santeria cult in Havana, was an ardent sideman with Bruce Springsteen, Meshell Ndegeocello and Sting. The following years in residence at a Manhattan restaurant made him the charismatic leader of a fusion quartet. Deeply attached to the Afro-cuban dance and Yoruba prayers of his youth, Pedrito Martinez fuses them with the soul, pop and rock sounds of New York. A heady Afro-cuban mix.

The Rosenberg Family Project The Rosenbergs Mozes Rosenberg guitar solo Johnny Rosenberg rythmic guitar Sani van Mullem double bass The Rosenberg trio Stochelo Rosenberg guitar solo Nonnie Rosenberg double bass In the world of gipsy jazz, Stochelo Rosenberg stands out as a virtuoso tempered by a natural elegance meaning he never overdoes things. With him, the competitive cutting guitar playing mixes in with a kind of nervous and swinging poetry where the themes from the traditional repertoire alternate with the most unexpected revivals. In the Rosenberg family, everyone is made for extended improvisation, they devote themselves to their high-speed chases with such elegance and implication that we find ourselves rediscovering pleasures procured through this craftsmanship of oral transmission, served up by devils who play like gods Recorded on July 31, 2019 at Jazz in Marciac TV Director,
