Erik TruffazJazz & Musiques du mondeTitre : Erik TruffazSous-titre : Rollin' & Clap!Date : Mardi 10/12/2024Horaire : 20h30Distribution : Erik Truffaz, trompetteMarcello Giuliani, basseRaphaël Chassin, batterieAlexis Anérilles, claviersMatthis Pascaud, guitareChapeau : Généreusement sans frontières, la programmation Jazz et Musiques du monde de La Seine Musicale mêle différentes générations d’artistes aux influences musicales multiples : grandes figures internationales, maîtres du jazz et artistes émergents mais aussi des rencontres inédites entre les artistes les plus détonants ! Groove et improvisation au rendez-vous !Description :Erik Truffaz est l'une des principales figures de la trompette électro-jazz dont la créativité ne s'est jamais émoussée au cours des dernières décennies. Détenteur d'un son doux et patiné, créateur de phrases concises aux antipodes de l'esbroufe, Erik Truffaz a creusé son sillon marqué par un groove élégant, sachant utiliser dans un équilibre parfait instruments acoustiques et électriques. Entouré de quelques complices au long cours, comme Marcello Giuliani, Raphaël Chassin, avec lesquels il a peaufiné un véritable son de groupe, il interpréte le répertoire de ses deux derniers albums (Rollin’ et Clap!) consacrés à la célébration de musiques de films cultes. Musiques auxquelles il confère une cambrure et une pulsation inédites (les compositions de Nino Rota pour La strada, de Philippe Sarde pour César et Rosalie, de Miles Davis avec Ascenseur pour l'échafaud et tant d’autres…). L'écrin de l'Auditorium, bois ciselé et rouge garance, est le complément idéal de ses incursions musicales subtiles dans le monde du 7ème art.Citation :« Ma trompette est l'expression de ce qu'il y a de plus beau dans mon âme. » Erik Truffaz

Erik Truffaz Biography
Erik Truffaz (born in 1960 in Switzerland) received an early introduction into the world of a professional musician, thanks to his saxophone-playing dad. When he was ten years old, the French trumpeter began performing in his father's dance band. As he grew older, Truffaz performed with other bands in the region until he was 16 and heard Kind of Blue by Miles Davis. The great jazz trumpeter's music inspired him to learn more, and he set off for Switzerland's Geneva Conservatoire, where he became a student. Truffaz's repertoire expanded to works by Mozart and Verdi, and he performed as part of Orchestre de Suisse Romande. He also played in cover bands before establishing a group called Orange. The band concentrated on Truffaz's compositions. Among its members was Marc Erbetta, a drummer who continued to play with Truffaz as the trumpeter evolved. Truffaz's jazz fusion artistry led France's Jury du Concours National de la Defense to bestow upon him the 1991 Prix Special, that country's coveted jazz award. Within three years, he became a leader with the release of Nina Valeria. In 1991, he made the first of his three appearances on the stage of the Montreux Jazz Festival. For two years beginning in 1994, he toured Europe, Russia, and Brazil, thanks to funds bestowed by the ProHelvetia Foundation. In 2000, Truffaz signed with Blue Note records and released The Mask, a straight ahead jazz session with Miles Davis similarities. By his second Revisite and third Mantis discs, however, Truffaz began to stretch the boundries of contemporary jazz by incorporating drum'n'bass and hip-hop rhythms, establishing himself as a cutting edge artist in his own right. In 2003, both Walk of the Giant Turtle and Bending New Corners were issued on Blue Note. Saloua from 2005 expanded his interest in hip-hop by adding some rap.
