Stanley Clarke, Biréli Lagrène & Jean-Luc Ponty to Release Album“ D-STRINGZ” grew out of joint Paris appearance in 2012By JazzTimes Violinist Jean-Luc Ponty, bassist Stanley Clarke, and guitarist Biréli Lagrène will release a trio recording, D-STRINGZ, Nov. 6 on impulse! Records. The trio's origins, according to a press release, date back to 2012 “when French jazz impresario and the disc's associate producer François Lacharme, produced an all-star concert at Paris' Chatelet Theatre to salute Ponty's 50-year-long career.” In addition to performing with an orchestra, Ponty organized two trios, one of which included Clarke, a longtime music collaborator, and Lagrène, whom neither Ponty nor Clarke had yet performed with. “The three only performed five pieces during a 20-minute set, yet the performance's impact was so immense that it inspired Lacharme to converse with Jean-Philippe Allard, jazz director of Universal Music France and general manager for Impulse! Records about the prospects of recording them,” the release states. Edited by snobb - 21 Oct 2015 at 8:47am |
