  • Description

    'Le Son De L'Absemce' (The Sound of Absence), originally released in 2009, features the Parisian pianist Christian Brenner performing eight of his own highly imaginative compositions in a trio setting with guitar and bass, followed by one standard, Little Girl Blue by Richard Rogers, where the trio changes to bass and drums.

    Brenner has the resonance of Bill Evans in his playing, yet indisputably his own man. His style crackles and sings, and he has major gifts as an arranger, and his repertoire is immense, bringing to each tune an individual, discerning craft.

    "There have been many influences and affinities on the way! Keith Jarrett and his trio, for instance: I love their engagement, their sound and interplay - the creative imagination they have. Bill Evans, of course, and Herbie Hancock; Kenny Barron, Enrico Pieranunzi, and Fred Hersch - these have been special for me. But I have appreciated and learned from many of the major names - from Art Tatum, Miles and Coltrane to Wes Montgomery, Brad Mehldau and Pat Metheny, for instance. Today, jazz in Paris is on an exceedingly high level, with an amazing new generation exploring many possibilities... open your ears, you can fly!" - Christian Brenner
