| Nouvel album, jazz et musiques du mondeGaëlle Bagot & Juan Manuel Nieto présentent leur premier album "Jardin d’ailleurs", fruit d’un travail axé sur l’improvisation, l’oralité et l’écriture.En quête d’élans aériens et d’arpentages croisés, la clarinettiste-chanteuse Gaëlle Bagot et le pianiste équatorien Juan Manuel Nieto nouent leur complicité autour de l’art du duo et viennent présenter le répertoire de leurs compositions originalesFruit du métissage culturel (influences de l’Amérique latine, de La Réunion, mais aussi du jazz et des musiques improvisées), ce duo donne naissance à un dialogue intemporel entre le piano, la voix et les clarinettes (si bémol, mi bémol, basse). Leur goût commun pour l’art de la mélodie, le groove, et l’improvisation, en fait une musique colorée, foisonnante et accueillante pour un public éclectique, du plus averti au plus populaire. Comme un carnet de voyage sonore, ces deux musiciens explorent des paysages où les frontières s’effacent.Cool jazz for quiet dreamsDimanche soir, fin de semaine, le 38Riv ralentit le tempo. Place à la douceur du cool jazz, à ses lignes claires, ses tempos posés, ses harmonies feutrées. Inspirée par l’héritage de musiciens comme Chet Baker, Lee Konitz ou Shirley Horn, cette série de concerts met l’accent sur l’écoute, l’épure et le dialogue. Un moment simple, précis, sans fioritures - juste la musique, et ce qu’elle peut encore raconter quand tout se tait autour.
