François Couturier 


The work was recorded in October 1978 at the Théatre de l'Université in Tours, and the band was formed around French pianist François Couturier. François Mechali and Philippe Mate and other jazzmen who participated in the next work in the year of 1981 will join and head towards more complicated directions, but this work has a precisely constructed ensemble and a strangely twisted aesthetic. A bold and clever chamber jazz of bold feeling that a modal sense of harmony is balanced with balance. The first side of this LP shows a complex development while holding humorous songs, while the other side (B) recorded a live 21 minutes worth of thrilling drive feeling, both outstanding completeness.
Great recommendation!
