El [le] (CD)
Out from the ambient musical gloom, French pianist Françoise TOULLEC offers us to go for a trip with "La Banquise En Eté" ("Ice Floe In Summertime"). Recorded in the year 2000, this unique album comes back brilliantly to the musical freshness and excellence of certain former projects that are dear to the Rock In Opposition French music school. Far beyond any rocky fury, here are peaceful atmospheres, softly jolting along between jazz that's free from any formal constraint and a contemporary music for forward children. The band here playing provides crystalline notes, merry and childish leaps of unespected notes, calm and naive voices, inventive and luminous percussions. In order to perform this flawless music, seasoned musicians such as René Le BORGNE (Percussions) or Claudia SOLAL (Vocalizations) are here again around Françoise. This is a boundless album, imbued with happiness and emotion, beyond the real complexity of a timeless music. The new opus "El[le]" (2009) features... "A hybrid music through its technique, definitely eclectic in its expression, but extraordinary precise in its way to articulate accident, stylistic gaps, intrusion of chance, with finely wrought forms, both by the complexity of vocal ranges, mixing voices in so many states (Singing, speaking, whispering, exclamatory, declamatory, sound-effecting...) with saxophone and electro-acoustic processings, and the moving and extremely varied rhythmic structures. Unwinding on an abstract narrative thread improvised and easily oniric sequences and little modular forms, both structural and plastic, Françoise TOULLEC combines miniaturist delicacies with a real desire of global form, and takes the listener to her soundscapes." (Translated from Stéphane OLLIVIER - Jazz Magazine, December 2009).
