Rokia Traoré | Rubén Pellejero Rokia Traoré, chant Mamadyba Camara, Kora Mamah Diabaté, N'goni Every year, the Angoulême Festival proposes to a comic strip author to create the Jazz à Vienne poster, and the two festivals offer a creative comic concert that mixes music and comic strips. Both festivals offer a creative comic concert that will mix music and comic strips, bringing together a cartoonist and a musician, who express themselves live with their own "tools" to compose a hybrid work. This particular comic concert brings together the singer Rokia Traoré and the cartoonist Rubén Pellejero. Recorded on January 26, 2018 at the Festival d'Angoulème TV Director, Samuel Thiebaut

Omar Sosa (piano) Leandro Saint-Hill (saxophone, flute) Joo Kraus (trumpet) Childo Tomas (voice, bass) Marque Gilmore (drums) To tackle a mountain like Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, there are two solutions: take it head-on at the risk of getting lost. Or circumvent it with inventiveness. Omar Sosa chose the second option. Pianist with a lavish discography and inexhaustible inventiveness, the Cuban has deconstructed all the components of Miles Davis' masterpiece to recompose them in his own way. Following the spirit rather than the letter: the approach makes sense for a musician full of spirituality like Omar Sosa. On the program, therefore, no Latinized "So What", no Africanized "All Blues", no rehashes of John Coltrane solos, but an unprecedented experience crossed by a quiet groove, bursts of electronics and winks. impressionists to the original disc. Recorded at the Jazz à la Villette festival, 2014 TV director, Samuel Thiebaut

Pedrito Martinez Live at the Banlieues Bleues 2017 Pedrito Martinez, voice, percussions Edgar Pantoja-Aleman, voice, keyboards Alvaro Benavides, voice, bass Jhair Sala, voice, bongos The most popular Cuban percussionist in New York brings a fresh new take on latin jazz. For a long time, this drummer-and-singer, brought up on Batá drums and the Santeria cult in Havana, was an ardent sideman with Bruce Springsteen, Meshell Ndegeocello and Sting. The following years in residence at a Manhattan restaurant made him the charismatic leader of a fusion quartet. Deeply attached to the Afro-cuban dance and Yoruba prayers of his youth, Pedrito Martinez fuses them with the soul, pop and rock sounds of New York. A heady Afro-cuban mix. Recorded on 2017, march 15th as part of the "Banlieues Bleues" , Clichy-sous-bois TV Director, Stéphane Sinde

Erik Truffaz Quartet feat. Rokia Traoré Erik Truffaz, trumpet Rokia Traoré, song Benoît Corboz, claviers Marcello Giuliani, bass Arthur Hnatek, drum kit Is it still necessary to present him? A Slender figure, straight hair with a white beard, Erik Truffaz has marked the history of European jazz with at least two albums: The Dawn and Bending New Corners. Hip-hop, jungle rhythms and a timbre similar to that of Miles Davis: a cocktail that you just can't get enough of. The Swiss trumpet player, who has often taken an interest in non-western music, is making a comeback today – after a series of more pop style records with various singers including Sophie Hunger – this time with a new recording which is looking towards Africa: Doni Doni. Clearly in love with women's voices, he has invited Malian singer Rokia Traoré into the studio, who will of course be there for this stylistically very open-minded evening.
