Stéphane Belmondo & Sylvain Luc Au New Morning at New Morning

Twenty years after their multi-award winning album in duo, "Ameskeri", trumpet player Stephane Belmondo and guitarist Sylvain Luc reoffend, wonderfully. The two liberty-loving buccaneers, with the intimist "2.0", testify to the maturity acquired during their respective rich journeys, but also to a preserved youth. From the first listening, we perceive a music that activates both intelligence and heart. Apart from the two covers of the album (a piece by Philippe Sarde and the other by Stevie Wonder), the original compositions are profoundly refined, whether signed by Sylvain Luc or Stephane Belmondo.

Twenty years after their multi-award winning album in duo, "Ameskeri", trumpet player Stephane Belmondo and guitarist Sylvain Luc reoffend, wonderfully. The two liberty-loving buccaneers, with the intimist "2.0", testify to the maturity acquired during their respective rich journeys, but also to a preserved youth. From the first listening, we perceive a music that activates both intelligence and heart. Apart from the two covers of the album (a piece by Philippe Sarde and the other by Stevie Wonder), the original compositions are profoundly refined, whether signed by Sylvain Luc or Stephane Belmondo. Over the opus, comes, as from an underground source, improvisation, fresh, and fertilized by the mud of time, of experience.

Vingt ans après leur premier disque en duo, "Ameskeri", multi‐récompensé, le trompettiste Stephane Belmondo et le guitariste Sylvain Luc récidivent, à merveille. Les deux flibustiers d’un jazz épris de liberté témoignent, avec l’intimiste 2.0, de la maturité acquise au cours de leurs riches parcours respectifs, mais aussi d’une jouvence préservée. Dès la première écoute, on perçoit une musique qui active autant l’intelligence que le cœur. Hormis les deux reprises de l’album (un morceau de Philippe Sarde et l’autre, de Stevie Wonder), les compositions originales recèlent un profond raffinement, qu’elles soient signées par Sylvain Luc ou Stephane Belmondo. Au fil de l’opus, surgit, comme d’une source souterraine, l’improvisation, fraîche, et fertilisée par le limon du temps, de l’expérience. Un concert Sunset Hors Les Murs !
