Lyrisk følelsesladet fransk jazz møder New-Yorker attitude
Hvilken slags jazz spiller de?
Den franske pianist Baptiste Trotignon har gennem de sidste to årtier markeret sig som en musiker med en sjælden evne til fint at forene den klassiske arv med jazzens vilde improvisationer. Han har en klar linje til de franske impressionister, som Debussy og Ravel i sit farverige og elegante anslag. Hans kompositioner er ofte fortællende, hvor smukke melodier følges af ekspressive udbrud.
Hvad skal jeg vide om dem?
Trotignon har modtaget en perlerække af franske og europæriske priser, og hans CV vidner om en musiker i den absolutte elite. Foruden utallige projekter som leder, er han en eftertragtet partner for stjerner som Brad Mehldau (i duo-konstellation), Tom Harrell, Joshua Redman, Mark Turner, Joe Lovano, Avishai Cohen, Jeff Ballard og Eric Harland. Han mestrer desuden at komponere og arrangere klassiske klaverkoncerter for store symfoniorkestre, hvilket understreger hans store musikalske spændvidde. Med i trioen er også de to svenske jazz-kometer Viktor Nyberg på bas og Cornelia Nilsson på trommer.
