Yesterday, 2011: Vincent, Yoann, Tony, Julien... and one more. A group of friends who have all independently left Nice and ended up in Paris. They take in Emile, who also comes from the south of France but lives further west. Today: natural affinities, a leader who calls the shots, and they use jazz to cover a wide musical spectrum, from baroque music to teen pop, from the traditions of the Balkans to the sounds of Africa. Morgen: With their flair for narrative, for creating a scenario and their mastery of dynamics, every concert is and remains a celebration of excellence. Listening to "Living Being IV: Time Reflections", one is immediately struck by the range of dynamics, the intimacy and extroversion that comes through in every detail, the rich textures and the arrangements that provide captivating moments of surprise. It's worth remembering that Vincent Peirani's Living Being foregrounded the concept of chamber music from the outset: a small number of performers, each playing a unique role, with the emphasis on the collective rather than the individual.
