BAPTISTE HERBIN

Baptiste Herbin Trio ft André Ceccarelli releases his new album “Django!” For this new album, Baptiste, for the first time, called upon an artistic director. He found in Daniel Yvinec an enlightened and stimulating interlocutor, who after hearing him play a Django theme during a jam session, suggested the subject of this album to him.

Together, they then shape a repertoire that draws a fascinating universe around the guitarist; some of his emblematic compositions skillfully rethought, intoxicating musette waltzes, to which are added a choro dedicated to him by Herbin, the moving homage of the pianist John Lewis, and a stunning reinterpretation of “Night and Day” in which Baptiste takes up the original solo of Django harmonized for two saxophones with an elegance and a naturalness that confirm the merits of the enterprise.
