« J’ai foi en la mémoire. Je crois, comme Duke Ellington, qu’un musicien a besoin du souvenir pour jouer, pour créer. Peu importe le style, l’idiome qu’il choisit pour cela ; la mémoire que le musicien utilise pour actionner sa démarche artistique semble primordiale pour la pertinence et la profondeur de son propos. » Raphaël Imbert
‘I have faith in memory. I believe, like Duke Ellington, that a musician needs memory to be able to play, to create. It doesn’t matter which style, which idiom he chooses in order to do so; the memory that the musician uses to spark off his artistic process is primordial for the relevance and the profundity of what he has to say’ (Raphaël Imbert).
A travers ces trois enregistrements réalisés pour ZigZag Territoires, Raphaël Imbert nous entraîne dans un univers éblouissant et foisonnant, où mémoire et création sont intimement liées.
In these three recordings for Zig-Zag Territoires, Raphaël Imbert leads us into a rich and dazzling universe where memory and creation are closely interconnected.
