Samuel Bonnet Trio - Hybride at Le Barbizon

Guitarist Samuel Bonnet has always felt "in between". Born in Israel and raised in France, it is Montreal that has allowed him to fully affirm his multiple identities and his hybrid artistic color.His musical inspiration has always evolved through the crossing of various styles. HYBRIDE is the result of an introspection lived during the pandemic and is the realization of an old dream: to merge the worlds of classical guitar and jazz. Berlioz said of the guitar that it is a "real little orchestra" and Samuel has understood this well by creating arrangements where all his influences are mixed with ingenuity. Thus, a jazz standard is tinged with a bewitching North African rhythm, a famous work for classical guitar is revisited in a delicate jazz waltz, and a Jewish festive piece is transformed into a surprisingly intimate piece.In his 5th album, HYBRIDE, Samuel tells us his personal story through 7 pieces that form his musical puzzle. A space where sound exploration reveals its infinite possibilities. ...

Le guitariste Samuel Bonnet s’est toujours senti « entre deux eaux ». Né en Israël et ayant grandi en France, c’est Montréal qui lui a permis d’affirmer complétement sa pluralité identitaire et sa couleur artistique hybride.Son inspiration musicale a toujours évolué grâce au croisement de divers styles. Fruit d’une introspection vécue pendant la pandémie, HYBRIDE est la réalisation d’un vieux rêve : fusionner les univers de la guitare classique et du jazz. Berlioz disait de la guitare qu’elle est un « véritable petit orchestre » et Samuel l’a bien compris en créant des arrangements où toutes ses influences se brassent avec ingéniosité. Ainsi, un standard de jazz se teinte d’un rythme nord-africain envoûtant, une œuvre célèbre pour guitare classique est revisitée en une délicate valse jazz, et une pièce festive juive se transforme en une surprenante pièce intimiste.Dans son 5ème album, HYBRIDE, Samuel nous conte ainsi son histoire personnelle à travers 7 morceaux qui forment son puzzle musical réunifié. Un espace où l’exploration sonore nous révèle ses possibilités infinies.
