Nicolas Folmer at Bal Blomet

Swarming with current sounds and contrasting soundscapes, Nicolas Folmer's new album BREATHE is a nautical kaleidoscope that shimmers from northwest to southeast and beyond. Faced with the news of our changing world, the artist, essential trumpeter on the national and international jazz scene and composer recognized by his peers, "resurfaces" on stage and offers us his reading of a idyllic "world of after ».He surrounded himself with a cast of high-flying artistic personalities. Strengthened by their backgrounds and having often shared the stage together, their musical understanding is almost telepathic.Surrounded by music that speaks as much to the body as to the spirit, "Breathe" invites us to dream and to 'let go' in a "Breathing" and an aspiration to sharing and freedom as joyful as they are salutary in these confusing times....

Fourmillant de sons actuels et d’univers sonores contrastés, le nouvel album BREATHE de Nicolas Folmer est un kaléidoscope nautique qui scintille du nord-ouest au sud-est et au-delà.Face à l’actualité de notre monde en pleine mutation, l’artiste, trompettiste incontournable de la scène jazz nationale et internationale et compositeur reconnu par ses pairs, « refait surface » sur scène et nous propose sa lecture d’un  » monde d’après  » » idyllique.Il s’est entouré d’un casting de personnalités artistiques de haut vol. Forts de leurs parcours et ayant souvent partagé la scène ensemble, leur entente musicale est quasi télépathique.Nimbé d’une musique qui s’adresse autant au corps qu’à l’esprit « Breathe » nous invite au rêve et au ‘lâcher prise’ dans une « Respiration » et une aspiration au partage et à la liberté aussi réjouissantes que salutaires en ces temps confus.
