The World Kora Trio is American cellist Eric Longsworth, kora player Cherif Soumano from Mali, and French percussionist David Mirandon. Their music is the encounter of cultures from three continents, “World music” in the truest sense. The colors of African music embodied by the kora resonate with the jazz and folk universe of the electric cello, and the varied percussions add spice and rhythmic vitality. The compositions are original, brought alive by constant improvisation and interaction, and the pleasure these three musicians have to be on stage together is palpable. Jazz, folk, rock, Maghreb flavours and blues come together with African tradition to create music without borders. Based in France, the World Kora Trio has toured in Canada, Mexico and Europe, and has played notably in Mali, Moldavia, Corsica, and Poland.

Genre: Jazz, Post-Bop

Du jazz autrement. C’est ce que fait la pianiste Perrine Mansuy pour que l’espace se crée et l’atmosphère s’amplifie. Dans son jeu, ses mélodies et ses échanges avec ses partenaires musiciens, elle se pose ou saute, caresse ou gifle. Avec le bigarré Rainbow Shell, Perrine Mansuy s'engage sur la voie d’une sorte de pop rêveuse. Un rêve qui serait évidemment éveillé. Zébrée des guitares blues et des samples de Rémy Decrouy, soutenue par les percussions de son autre compagnon de route, Jean-Luc Difraya, et l’arrivée du violoncelliste Eric Longsworth qui colore l’ensemble de nuances nouvelles, sa musique romanesque est inspirée des poèmes de Katherine Mansfield. Le chanteur Mathis Haug prête également sa voix à ces instants de vie fugitifs, ces plages de rêve orchestrées par un piano. Au cœur de cet album créatif à souhait, le jeu de Perrine Mansuy est un vrai diadème.

With her new opus “Rainbow Shell”, pianist Perrine Mansuy resolutely embarks on a pop way, a western “dream pop”, following the footsteps of that tireless traveller, adventurous Katherine Mansfield. Always in search of light, the novelist hastened to live and write short forms, short stories for the most part, strong and seldom sentimental. Streaked with blues guitars and Rémy Decrouy’s samples, always supported by the percussions of other fellow traveller Jean-Luc Difraya, cellist Eric Longsworth’s arrival among the band colours the whole with new shades: fabulous sensitivity, romantic commitment?
