Interview by Alain Brunet

Additional Information

Active since two decades now, the double bassist, composer and leader of the Cordâme ensemble has been releasing a new album: Déesses mystiques. Once again, Jean-Félix Mailloux assumes his inclination for modern classical music, contemporary jazz and non-Western music. Alongside violinist Marie Neige Lavigne, cellist Sheila Hannigan, pianist Guillaume Martineau, harpist Éveline Grégoire-Rousseau and percussionist Mark Nelson, he dedicates his new compositions to the goddesses of Greek mythology, which have been on his mind since a trip to Greece as a teenager. Returning to strictly instrumental music, Cordâme is currently on tour, stopping off at the Sala Rossa this Friday, November 1. Alain Brunet interviewed him to find out more about the project, and to give PAN M 360’s audience the benefit of his answers.
