Poetic Ways

Poetic Ways

Jazz is admittedly all about whom you meet. But it also a question of surprise, being left speechless, play and poetry. The quintet “Poetic Ways” is a trial, transformed during a first impromptu concert improvised live on France Musique radio in November 2021 for the bicentenary of the Conservatoire Pierre Barbizet in Marseille.

At the outset, it was a simple bet on a surprise or expectation: that the voices of Celia Kameni, Anne Paceo, Raphaël Imbert, Pierre-François Blanchard and Pierre Fenichel would work for a new attractive and poetical adventure of sound! A successful gamble thanks to the magic of the moment captured on air, the feedback from listeners surprised to hear Fauré, Ferré, Baudelaire, Verlaine, Nina Simone in one same echo filled with groove and emotions. The gamble should clearly be taken again! A new creation, a new surprise, not to be missed.
