Naïssam Jalal: Un autre monde

by Henning Bolte
March 17, 2021

Some may see the flute as an odd one out in jazz. For France that certainly does not apply. France has Michel Edelin from the older generation and, for example, Magic Malik, Eve Risser, Sylvaine Hélary and Naïssam Jalal from the younger. A flautist needs good sonic allies to embed flute sounds in and/or ...

by Henning Bolte
March 8, 2021

Is flute an odd one out in the present jazz field? Not really and not at all in France.

French flautist Sylvaine Hélary's Spring Roll follow up their ambitious debut Printemps (Ayler, 2015) with another adventurous outing on Episodes.

Michel Edelin Quartet: Resurgence

by Alberto Bazzurro
February 21, 2014

Pur facendo per ovvi motivi riferimento al veterano flautista Michel Edelin, che ne è il titolare nonché l'autore di tutto il materiale tematico, questo lavoro trae i motivi della propria riuscita più che mai dalla somma delle forze in campo, anche proprio nella loro diversità. Si segnalano specificatamente le presenze di un almeno ...
