Description du concert
A kanadai zongorista, Gentiane MG zenéje elsősorban az improvizált jazz hagyományából táplálkozik, de gyökerei között felsejlik az impresszionista és romantikus zene hatása is, amelyek elbűvölően személyes világban egyesülnek. A Radio-Canada Révélation díjával is elismert művész régi tettestársai, Levi Dover és Louis-Vincent Hamel társaságában rögzítette harmadik, Walls Made of Glass című albumát (2022), amelynek szépségével csak az intenzitása vetekedik. Gentiane eleven pillanatképekben ragadta meg azt a mély kapcsolódást, amelyet a környezetében megjelenő élőlények, tárgyak és hangok iránt érez. Sugárzó, érzelemteli darabjait a trió lenyűgöző és képzeletgazdag akusztikus közegbe helyezi. Ahogy Keith Black, a Winnipeg Free Press újságírója fogalmazott: semmi handabandázás, semmi mesterkéltség, csak magabiztos teremtő erő.

"...her writing is phenomenally brilliant. She is a standout talent. Michaud- Gagnon’s music flows masterfully with poise and grace. She commands the piano with elegance, subtlety, and a refined quiet knowing." (Kerilie McDowall, All About Jazz)
“Her latest release showcases the full extent of her rare talent. Gentiane MG confirms her stature as a major artist. There is nothing glib, nothing faked, simply confident creativity." (Keith Black, Winnipeg Free Press, 2022).
MG’s music reflects her background as a jazz pianist as well as her early training in Conservatory as a classical pianist, incorporating the aesthetics of impressionism with the improvisational approach and rhythmic sensibility of contemporary jazz. Her compositions come together in a deeply personal universe shaped with contrasting colours, memorable melodies and intricate tensions that bring expressivity, vivacity, dream and mystery to a compelling acoustic landscape.
Gentiane MG’s music has earned her numerous accolades, including the Radio- Canada Révélation Jazz Award in 2018, the OPUS Award for Discovery of the Year in 2020 and the François-Marcaurelle de la GMMQ Award. Walls Made of Glass was nominated for Jazz Album of the Year at the Gala ADISQ in Quebec, Canada in 2023.
