En quarante-trois ans, une certaine ligne a été fondée. Le Festival n’est pas une liste de courses qui aligne des noms à acheter. C’est pour moi un livre de recettes. Les musiciens, le public et le lieu sont les ingrédients qui, une fois réunis, donnent le menu. 16 jours durant, la table est dressée pour que chacun puisse trouver les mets à son goût, mais aussi se laisser surprendre par des saveurs nouvelles. Bien entendu, certains plats peuvent parfois être très épicés ! In 43 years, a certain line has been created. The Festival is not a shopping list with rows of names to buy. For me, it is a recipe book. The musicians, the public and the venue are the ingredients, which, once put together, provide the menu. For 16 days, the table is laid so that there is a dish to suit everyone and a chance to enjoy unexpected new flavours. Of course, some dishes can be too spicy! Claude Nobs

Chris Blackwell & Island Records

Chris Blackwell et Island Records Un homme, des musiques Né à Londres en 1937, Chris Blackwell a dans son code génétique une double culture : la Jamaïque de par sa mère et l’Irlande de par son père. Ces deux pays ont donné à son label, Island Records, ses groupes les plus emblématiques : Bob Marley & The Wailers et U2. Et tellement d’autres qu’il est impossible de les énumérer. Le Montreux Jazz Festival célèbre les 50 ans de la fondation de la maison de disques de l’homme qui a « fait » la musique de la deuxième moitié du XX e siècle. Comme le dit Claude Nobs en souriant, « Island a 50 ans, le Festival 43. Nous avons presque le même âge. Forcément que nous nous connaissons avec Chris ! » En marge de la soirée hommage à Quincy Jones en 2008, les deux hommes s’accordent pour organiser en 2009 un hommage à Island Records pour les 50 ans de la maison. Mais le fondateur du Festival souhaite surtout rendre hommage à un homme qui a comme nul autre su découvrir des talents, dans le reggae comme dans le rock, la pop ou le jazz. Tout commence avec 1000 Livres Sterling, en 1959. Avec ce petit pécule il produit des chanteurs locaux de ska ou de reggae qui lui permettent de se faire une bonne réputation, principalement sur l’île. Petit à petit, les disques traversent l’Atlantique pour atterrir sur les platines de Londres. Mais c’est en 1964, alors qu’il est désormais installé à Londres, que le premier grand succès arrive : Millie Small reprend « My Boy Lollipop » sur un rythme ska, accompagnée par le groupe de Ernest Ranglin. Succès immédiat, en Angleterre comme aux Etats-Unis : 7 millions d’exemplaires vendus. Le label se développe, mais toujours à dimension humaine selon Blackwell qui craint de devenir « un supermarché. » Les nouveaux artistes signés amènent d’autres styles. Jethro Tull, Cat Stevens ou Robert Palmer rejoignent la famille. C’est en 1971, en revenant aux sources, que Chris atteint une nouvelle dimension ; Bob Marley et les Wailers débutent avec lui une collaboration qui durera jusqu’à la mort du héros rasta. Dans les années 80, un groupe irlandais qui n’avait jusque-là pas réussi à décrocher de contrat est accueilli chez Island. Blackwell signe U2 et ne le regrettera pas. Suivront Grace Jones, Steve Winwood et tant d’autres. Pour compléter le tableau, il se lance, avec succès, dans la production de films. Après avoir vendu la compagnie en 1989, il quitte sa tête en 1997. Avec Claude Nobs, il a élaboré un programme d’une densité incroyable pour présenter au public une attitude qui ne connaît pas de limite de genre ! Cependant, trois grandes soirées entières sont consacrées au producteur et à la maison de disques qu’il a fondée.

Chris Blackwell and Island Records One man, much music Born in London in 1937, Chris Blackwell has the cultures of two countries in his genetic make-up: Jamaica through his mother and Ireland through his father. These countries have given his Island Records label its most emblematic bands – Bob Marley & The Wailers, U2 and many others. The Montreux Jazz Festival celebrates the 50th anniversary of a record company founded by the man who “made” the music of the latter part of the 20th century. As Claude Nobs says with a smile: “Island is 50, the Festival, 43. We are nearly the same age. Of course, Chris and I know each other!” At the tribute night to Quincy Jones in 2008, the two men agreed to organise an Island Records tribute for the company’s 50th anniversary. But, above all, the Festival founder wanted to pay tribute to a man with an uncommon knack for spotting talents – in reggae as well as in rock, pop and jazz. It all began in 1959 with 1,000 pounds. With this little nest-egg, Blackwell, then aged 22, started producing for pleasure. His work with local ska and reggae singers enabled him to build a solid reputation, mainly on the island. Gradually, the records crossed the Atlantic and ended up on London’s turn-tables. But it was in 1964, when he had moved to London, that he produced a first big hit. Millie Small covered My Boy Lollipop with a ska rhythm, accompanied by Ernest Ranglin’s band. It was an immediate success in the UK and the USA and sold seven million copies. The label developed but, according to Blackwell, who feared it would become a “supermarket”, it kept its human dimension. Artists, such as Jethro Tull, Cat Stevens and Robert Palmer joined the family and brought other styles with them. It was in 1971, by returning to his roots, that Blackwell reached a new dimension. With Bob Marley and the Wailers he began a collaboration that was to last until the death of the Rasta hero. In the ’80s, an Irish band, who had been unable to land a contract elsewhere, joined Island’s roster. Blackwell signed U2 and was not to regret it. Then came Grace Jones, Steve Winwood and many others. To cap it all, Blackwell successfully ventured into film production. After selling the company in 1989, he resigned as director in 1997, but retained his passion for music and cinema. With Claude Nobs, he has put together an incredibly dense programme to present to the public an attitude that knows no genre limits!

Herbie Hancock
En première mondiale au MJF : Herbie Hancock et Lang Lang ORCHESTRE NATIONAL DE LYON, conduit par JOHN AXELROD New York, 12 février 1924, il neige. Il y a foule à l’Aeolian Hall pour la création d’un Concerto pour piano et orchestre de jazz. L’auteur et interprète George Gershwin est entouré de l’orchestre de Paul Whiteman. Un triomphe pour cette Rhapsody in Blue que Gershwin considérait comme un hymne à la musique de jazz, expression par excellence de liberté et d’inventions improvisées. « Cela m’est venu tout d’un coup. J’entendais souvent des phrases du genre : « le jazz est au service de la danse. » Je décidais de tuer ces absurdités d’un seul coup. C’est dans le train, qui m’emmenait à Boston, le 7 janvier 1924, avec ses rythmes métalliques, ses cliquetis lancinants, que l’inspiration m’est venue. Soudain, j’ai entendu toute la construction de la Rhapsody. Je l’entendais comme un kaléïdoscope musical des Etats-Unis. » L’œuvre existe pour piano et orchestre, et pour piano seul; Gershwin lui-même l’avait interprétée dans un rouleau perforé pour piano Duo-Art et pour deux pianos. Montreux, 5 juillet 2009. Première mondiale par Herbie Hancock et Lang Lang avec l’Orchestre National de Lyon sous la direction de John Axelrod. « J’ai rencontré Lang Lang après un concert du Sacre du Printemps qu’il avait interprété à Los Angeles. En smoking, avec des baskets blanches, il m’a surpris par sa gentillesse et son humour. Peu de temps après, on a joué au Grammys et, de fil en aiguille, on s’est retrouvé en train de discuter du programme d’une tournée ensemble qui ferait une belle place à la Rhapsody. » 05.07.09, Auditorium Stravinski Antonin Dvorák, Ouverture Carnaval, op. 92 Vaughan Williams, Concerto pour 2 pianos et orchestre Leonard Bernstein, Ouverture de Candide George Gerschwin, Rhapsody in Blue (réarrangé pour deux pianos et orchestre) Maurice Ravel, Ma Mère L’Oie (réarrangé pour 4 mains) Surprises

World premiere at the MJF: Herbie Hancock and Lang Lang ORCHESTRE NATIONAL DE LYON, conducted by JOHN AXELROD New York, February 12th 1924, it’s snowing. There’s a large crowd at the Aeolian Hall for the creation of a Concerto for piano and jazz orchestra. Author and performer, George Gershwin is surrounded by the Paul Whiteman orchestra. A triumph for “Rhapsody in Blue”, which was considered as a hymn to the music of jazz by Gershwin, perfect expression of freedom and improvised inventions. “It came to me suddenly. I often heard phrases like: “jazz is at the service of dance.” I decided to kill this nonsense at once… It was on the train, with its steely rhythms, its rattle-ty bang… And there I suddenly heard, and even saw on paper – the complete construction of the Rhapsody, from beginning to end… I heard it as a sort of musical kaleidoscope of America.” The work is for piano and orchestra, as well as solo piano; Gershwin himself had interpreted it in arranged rolls for Duo-Art reproducing piano and for two pianos. Montreux, July 5th 2009. World Premiere by Herbie Hancock and Lang Lang with the National Orchestra de Lyon conducted by John Axelrod. “I met Lang Lang after a concert of ‘The Rite of Spring’ he had performed in Los Angeles. Wearing a tuxedo, with white sneakers, he surprised me with his kindness and humour. Shortly after we played at the Grammys and sure enough, we were quickly found discussing the possibility of touring together, which would give a wonderful homage to the Rhapsody.”
