Antoine Karacostas Quartet at 38 Riv

Antoine Karacostas has released two albums as a trio, ‘Trails’ in 2017 and ‘Insulary Tales’ in 2019, in which he presented a repertoire of arrangements of traditional Greek songs and rebetiko, as well as his own compositions.

Antoine Karacostas a sorti deux albums en trio, « Trails » en 2017 et « Insulary Tales » en 2019, dans lesquels il présentait un répertoire d'arrangements de chansons grecques traditionnelles et de rebetiko, ainsi que de compositions personnelles. Un mélange singulier au lyrisme entêtant qui a défini le son du groupe, fondé en 2014.Avec « Frames », Antoine Karacostas nous livre un troisième album de compositions et d'arrangement de rebetiko, la signature sonore du groupe. Dans cet opus, il s’inspire de la peinture et de l'impressionnisme pictural autant que musical. Cet album est également une réflexion sur la notion de cadre, à la fois celui dans lequel nous nous trouvons et celui que nous souhaitons dépasser, dans notre quête personnelle de liberté.
