Description
A trio of contrasts pursue a common cause: with the vibrancy of pioneering spirits, KhaliféSchumacherTristano release their first album. Worlds encounter one-another. Now living in Paris, Bachar Khalifé's familial roots are in Lebanon. He represents the musical moments of the Near East, anchored in Arabian culture and colored by the variegated sound-world of the French scene. Luxembourgian vibraphonist Pascal Schumacher is the jazzman in the alliance, a much-celebrated master of improvisation who provokes unusual textural structures out of his instrument. With his piano and electronics play, fellow countryman Francesco Tristano bridges over to the classical, which the internationally-renowned Bach interpreter uses as the basis of his playing style. He also brings the sounds and impulse of the club scene with him, a perspective that opens up new musical directions.
