New Perspectives Html

Hubert Rostaing's clarinet sang elegant musical phrases. Its beautiful sound captivated Django Reinhardt and Rostaing took place in the Quintet of the Hot Club de France in 1940. Accompanist of Yves Montand, arranger and composer of film music, Rostaing recorded a delicious album for Vega records in 1957 in which his composer's talent is emerging. Martial Solal and Michel Hausser interpret his delicate swing music with great finesse, which is presented as a tribute to Benny Goodman. Maurice Meunier succeeded Hubert Rostaing with Django in 1947. Opened at bebop, he adopted the agreements and offered the instrument new perspectives. Now forgotten, Meunier produced a magnificent album for Barclay in 1956. William Boucaya, Raymond Fol, Rene Urtreger, Pierre Michelot, Christian Garros and Jean-Louis Viale support his modern clarinet.

The instruments are guitar, violin, computer, occasional voice; the music, some settings and arrangements of well-known folk songs as well as several original folk-like pieces. Folk music lovers will undoubtedly say it's not really folk music (they're right); computer music aficionados and cyberspace cadets may not think of it as computer music (maybe they're right too); and guitar freaks will say our guitar is not nearly as good as Leo Kottke's (oh boy are they right). Though it's not a bad thing to defy description, the best way to understand the music is probably found in the title, Folk Images.
