Press Release
RAMOUR is the debut album by Jean Fontamar and Laurianne Langevin, french artists that live in Italy since 17 years.
Out January 24th on Tǔk Voice, this is a debut for the label by Paolo Fresu, who is also a guest on the tracklist.
The word consort refers to english baroque music ensembles, and emphasizes the deep continuity that links baroque improvisation and jazz improvisation; but consort is also a group that has decided to share the same fate.
9 love songs, from the most troubled to the brightest, born in the wake of the french chanson tradition, and which, thanks to the encounter with the ensemble, synthesize various influences: jazz, pop, electro, folk and early music.
Among the musicians involved you can find Vito de Lorenzi (drums and percussion) and Roberto Gagliardi (alto sax).
Finally, two “veterans” of the label occupy a special place: Valerio Daniele, often behind the mixer and now as guitarist and effects manipulator, and Marco Bardoscia, who celebrates the milestone of twenty recordings for our catalog.
“Ramour” is the encounter between the rigor of composition and the freedom of improvisation, between modern sounds with a classical breath, between France and Salento.
The cover artwork is a collage by Jean Fontamar entitled “Floating Kiss.”
RAMOUR è il disco di debutto di Jean Fontamar e Laurianne Langevin, artisti francesi che da 17 anni vivono in Italia.
In uscita il 24 gennaio per la Tǔk Voice, il lavoro segna il debutto per l’etichetta di Paolo Fresu, ospite peraltro in alcuni brani della tracklist.
La parola Consort rimanda agli ensemble inglesi di musica barocca, e sottolinea la profonda continuità che lega l'improvvisazione barocca e l'improvvisazione jazz; ma consort è anche un gruppo che ha deciso di condividere la stessa sorte.
9 canzoni d'amore, dalle più travagliate alle più luminose, nate sulla scia della tradizione della chanson francese, e che grazie all’incontro con l’ensemble ne sintetizzano le diverse influenze: jazz, pop, electro, folk e musica antica.
Tra i musicisti coinvolti ci sono Vito de Lorenzi (batteria e percussioni) e Roberto Gagliardi (sax alto).
Un posto speciale occupano infine due “veterani” della label: Valerio Daniele, spesso dietro il mixer e qui in qualità di chitarrista e manipolatore degli effetti, e Marco Bardoscia, che festeggia il traguardo dei venti dischi per il nostro catalogo.
“Ramour” è l’incontro tra il rigore della composizione e la libertà dell’improvvisazione, tra suoni moderni dal respiro classico, tra la Francia ed il Salento.
L’opera di copertina è un collage di Jean Fontamar dal titolo “Floating Kiss”.
