Well supported by writing that borrows as much from improvisation as from classical composition, these works have induced in me a need for frequent relistening, so much does their beauty and rich complexity call for it. I hope it will do the same to you.&nbsp;<br>The great technical and interpretative mastery of the two soloists allows the different characters of the six pieces to fully flourish. <em>Delta Variation<\/em> by Jensen dances pleasantly, in a spirit of lightness and cheerful playfulness. The suite in 3 movements by Bourassa&#8217;s, <em>Jazzette concertante,<\/em> transitions from an insistent and determined personality, culminating in Reichian energy, in the 1st movement (<em>En \u00e9moi<\/em> &#8211; In turmoil) to an intimate and composed atmosphere in the 2nd (<em>Reflexive<\/em> &#8211; Reflective), then to a sense of urgency, even nervousness, in the 3rd (<em>En exil<\/em> &#8211; In exile). The latter also proposes the use of the prepared piano in the introduction. A detail that enhances the relationship with Marie-Jos\u00e9e Simard&#8217;s marimba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"En Exil - Marie Jos\u00e9e Simard &amp; Fran\u00e7ois Bourassa https:\/\/www.effendirecords.com\/album?album=FND173\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NzQWFp4Tebs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>De r\u00e9sonances et d\u2019\u00e9chos<\/em> (Of Resonances and Echoes) by Marianne Trudel is my favourite track on the album. The piece evolves in an aura of sonic magic that cleverly combines contemporary writing and impressionism, a Webernian delicacy, in a brighter light, with a contrapuntal discourse that reveals Bach as a source of reference. Trudel balances the timbres of the vibraphone and the marimba with those of the piano with great mastery, which are thus brought into dialogue in a remarkable exchange of equals. It&#8217;s magnificent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The finale is left to the brilliant Jean-Nicolas Trottier and his piece <em>Spirale<\/em>, which swirls effectively, injecting a dose of dizzying energy into the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Bourassa and Simard play well together and transcend the primary natures of their respective musical worlds, jazz and classical, improvisation and score. It must be said that neither of them is a stranger to collaborations and stepping outside their comfort zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">An album that we listen to with a satisfied smile.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a splendid album.
