Dodgy This Is Ours: A Collection Of Recent Recordings (1995)

Hugo Reyne décide, en 1987, de fonder un ensemble dont la vocation est la redécouverte du patrimoine musical français des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Le nom qu´il lui choisit réunit le mot simphonie, synonyme à cette époque d´ensemble instrumental, et le Marais, l´un des plus beaux quartiers de Paris, représentatif de la période baroque.

The concept of TALKING WITH THE BLUES is based on a view of the various US states as blues regions. Even casual blues listeners are familiar with the fact that there is Chicago Blues or Mississippi Blues and the gripping social history of the music is very much marked by its geography. But there is much more that just those two places and to this day blues music stays committed to local styles. Moreover, many US states are endowed with a unique cultural identity grown out of the prevailing social, historical and ethnic realities. Reflections of these specific identities are also expressed in the blues.
