Lionel Suarez & Macha Gharibian at Saint-denis Jazz / Tgp

A subtle colorist, Lionel Suarez was able to give the accordion orchestral flavors that we could not even imagine. Composer, arranger, director, he plays with all styles and multiplies prestigious collaborations: from Claude Nougaro to Richard Bona, from André Minvielle to Airelle Besson, from Bernard Lavilliers to Charles Aznavour, from Sanseverino to Yaël Naim, and so many 'others.

Between jazz, soul and blues, between Paul Simon and traditional Armenian singing, Macha Gharibian combines her influences with rare coherence....

Coloriste subtil, Lionel Suarez a su donner à l’accordéon des parfums orchestraux que l’on n’imaginait même pas. Compositeur, arrangeur, réalisateur, il se joue de tous les styles et multiplie les collaborations prestigieuses : de Claude Nougaro à Richard Bona, d’André Minvielle à Airelle Besson, de Bernard Lavilliers à Charles Aznavour, de Sanseverino à Yaël Naim, et tant d’autres. Musicien libre, prodigue, voyageur, il compose, il fédère, il assemble des spectacles qui sont à la fois ou successivement musique, théâtre, audace, vertige.Primée aux Victoires du Jazz dans la catégorie « Révélation» en 2020, Macha Gharibian possède un triple héritage musical : arménien, français et américain. Forte de ces trois cultures, elle crée un univers bien à elle. Sur scène, de sa voix grave et habitée, elle nous invite au voyage, avec toujours en filigrane une douce mélancolie. Entre jazz, soul et blues, entre Paul Simon et le chant traditionnel arménien, Macha Gharibian accorde ses influences avec une rare cohérence.
