Digital Booklet
|
Guillaume de Chassy, Arnault Cuisinier and Thomas Savy have long made up a trio bridging jazz improvisation and classical music. On Bridges, their second album, they are joined by baritone Laurent Naouri, so impressive in numerous famous operatic roles; a passionate aficionado of jazz in general and of Broadway songs in particular. Naouri sings Hanns Eisler’s Hollywood Songbook, composed in 1943 on poems by his companion in exile in Los Angeles, Bertolt Brecht. The trio accompanies and improvises bridges between the songs. Completing the programme are bold improvisations based on de Chassy's transcriptions of Prokofiev's concertos and sonatas with added texts by Russian poets.
"... we reversed the usual process, of adapting the music to the text. I don’t know if Prokofiev liked jazz, but it so happens that the harmonies colouring his themes are very inspiring vehicles for improvisation."
