CD Brewin the blues Elisabeth Kontomanou
The magic of the meeting of the minds between singer Elisabeth Kontomanou and pianist Laurent Courthaliac can hardly be described with words.
They come from different backgrounds: Elisabeth has always been eager to experience as much as possible, from New York to Europe. Laurent is an inventive researcher, deepening and developing the language of be bop piano. What they have in common is their love for jazz music. To them, jazz is to be simple more than complex, tracing its roots from Billie Holiday, Bud Powell or Duke Ellington's jazz.
This shared emotion is the starting point of a sophisticated music, present, alive and deep.
All the ingredients are gathered here to rethink a world where the values of tradition would find their place within today's society, seeking for permanent creation and renewal.
"I have never touched jazz, nor have I seen it. Only through its echo have I been able to catch sight of it, but every day of my life, I will try and get closer."
Elisabeth Kontomanou
