PARIS - LEPROUS + GUESTS

"La seule chose qui reste constante dans le monde de Leprous, c’est le changement. Formé en 2001 à Notodden, en Norvège, ce groupe moderne des plus agiles s’est attaché dès le départ à trouver sa propre voie. Inspiré par toutes les facettes du spectre musical, leur son s’est cristallisé autour d’un métal progressif frais, débordant de virtuosité et se délectant d’un art de la chanson méticuleux. Le 30 aout 2024, ils sortiront leur album le plus envoûtant et le plus percutant à ce jour : Melodies Of Atonement. Melodies Of Atonement marque un changement significatif dans la façon dont Leprous s’exprime, avec un festin nutritif de compositions aiguisées et de performances d’ensemble magistrales. Débarrassés de la somptuosité orchestrale des albums précédents, et réduits à la réalité de cinq musiciens jouant ensemble, les nouveaux morceaux comme le premier single Atonement, et sa suite prévue Silent Walking Alone, réutilisent les racines du métal progressif de Leprous pour créer quelque chose qui est à la fois palpitant et familier. Trois ans après Aphelion, Leprousa réussi une nouvelle réinvention remarquable. Melodies Of Atonementpourrait difficilement être l’œuvre de quelqu’un d’autre, notamment grâce à la voix incomparable d’Einar Solberg, mais il ne ressemble pas non plus à un autre disque du catalogue substantiel du groupe. À la fois un triomphe sans équivoque et un nouveau départ radical, Leprous est à son meilleur, déconcertant et intrépide."

PARIS - Piano Concert - Florian Christl

"Florian Christl's passionate way of playing the Piano and his distinctive style of composition, which is both exciting and deeply moving, shows the all-encompassing love for music of the Munich-based composer. The mix of sometimes soothing, sometimes powerful piano sounds in combination with extremely imaginative and exciting string arrangements makes Florian Christl's music unique in a very special way. His music is radically unafraid of appealing directly to our emotions, which makes attending his live performance a moving experience. Improvisation is Florian's most important creative method. For him, composing is a deeply personal, almost intimate process in which the composer remains alone with his music and his thoughts. The aim is to create a space to think, that can be experienced individually; a place where it's all about: „It’s time to leave reality behind, to sink in thoughts to feel alive.“"
