Virtuoso trumpeter Airelle Besson converses with accordionist Lionel Suarez. Kenny Garrett draws on Detroit's spiritual and cultural heritage, nourished by a cosmopolitan contemporary energy.
Airelle Besson & Lionel Suarez Blossom A trumpet and accordion duet, an obvious choice if you've been lucky enough to hear their volutes fill a cathedral nave, as in Coutances, or whisper in a more intimate setting. Between Airelle Besson's trumpet and Lionel Suarez's reeds, the music unfolds as naturally as the flapping of wings. Forget who's accompanying whom, they're all on the same journey. Sometimes mid-voice, in confidence; often as close as possible to the melody, with a delicately formulated lyricism; always in osmosis, supporting and extending each other. The best part is that when one fades away, the other insinuates itself into the space more than it invades it, sketching out an expectation, underlining what connects the points of suspension. Airelle Besson: trumpet Lionel Suarez: accordion Kenny Garrett Sounds from the Ancestors A vibrant project that goes beyond the boundaries of jazz to embrace soul, gospel and Afro-Caribbean influences. Nurtured by the legacies of John Coltrane, Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye, Kenny Garrett's music draws on the spiritual and cultural memory of Detroit while opening up to a contemporary cosmopolitan energy.
