âRĂ©vĂ©lationâ Jazz Magazine, âĂLUâ Citizen Jazz, Jazz Migration #7.MĂȘlant musique enregistrĂ©e dans plusieurs lieux emblĂ©matiques de Tripoli au Liban tels que le hammam Ezzeddine, l'Ă©glise armĂ©nienne de Beit El Fan ou encore Beit El Nessim, ancienne demeure ottomane du XVIIIĂšme siĂšcle mais aussi des enregistrements captĂ©s au coeur de lieux de vie, de rencontre ou de passage tels que les souks de la ville ancienne, la place Al Tal ou encore le dĂŽme de la foire internationale Rachid KaramĂ©, cet album est une oeuvre sonore dĂ©diĂ©e Ă la ville, son histoire, son prĂ©sent et aux personnes qui l'habitent aujourd'hui. TĂ©moignage intime et personnel dâune Ă©poque extrĂȘmement particuliĂšre au Liban, Trablos se veut une interprĂ©tation phonique par un duo d'artistes improvisateurs sur instruments prĂ©parĂ©s, au service dâune recherche autour de la texture et de la rĂ©sonance des matiĂšres. Saisir le rĂ©el mais aussi le sublimer : la ville de Tripoli se donne ainsi Ă voir et Ă entendre autrement, au plus prĂšs de sensations et dâimages vĂ©cues, comme une expĂ©rience en partage, entre Ă©trangetĂ© et imaginaires communs, Ă lâendroit oĂč les mots ne suffisent pas pour re-penser, imaginer mais aussi rĂȘver.Jazzics â Jazz meets classicalLe 38Riv cĂ©lĂšbre le dialogue entre jazz et musiques classiques. Relecture des grands rĂ©pertoires, rencontres dâinstruments venus dâĂ©poques diffĂ©rentes, improvisations libres : un rendez-vous oĂč les frontiĂšres sâeffacent au profit dâun langage commun.PensĂ©e en hommage Ă Vincent Charbonnier, fondateur du 38Riv et contrebassiste passionnĂ©, cette programmation sâinscrit dans lâesprit du «âŻPlay BachâŻÂ» de Jacques Loussier : curieuse, inventive, libre.
