Description
Jean-Marie Machado returns to the piano trio format with Como as Flores, an album inspired by the work of Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa (1888 -1935), music of clarity and poetry, underpinned by timeless, subtle dances and beautiful stretches of rhythmic trance.
A distinguished musical adventurer, Jean-Marie Machado explores the winding path of a protean jazz, always seeking new horizons. Active in a wide variety of ensembles, he regularly returns to the trio format. For this trio, he joins forces with Brazilian drummer and percussionist Ze Luis Nascimento Parisian bassists Claude Tchamitchian two exemplary partners, each contributing their inventive approach to the evolution of their shared language, resolutely transversal and open to other influences.
"To think of a flower is to see and breathe it in, to eat a fruit is to know of its meaning", wrote the poet Fernando Pessoa, who has been so deeply inspiring to Jean-Marie Machado from one album to another. We can't ignore the bond binding the pianist-composer with Pessoa's words and imagination when 'Como as Flores' is revealed to us as a wonderful sound bouquet offered by this new trio." - Anne Montaron
