The music that Eddie composes is a sensitive music full of rhythm which is lived with the heart and with the body. It is with Loïc Guenneguez, Baptiste Castets and Aurélien Gody that he likes to express himself freely and take risks. For them, each piece is an opportunity to explore.

''Adeo'' is a Latin expression which means "to go towards". Composed during the silence of confinement, this repertoire echoes the desire to “go towards” a writing and a search for stamps located at the crossroads of the oral tradition (jazz, popular music) and written tradition (classical music). Adeo is designed as a ''chamber music orchestra'' which brings together seven musicians: a classical quartet (bass clarinet, bassoon, viola and cello, two woodwinds, two strings) and its current trio sax, bass, drums. A music resolutely acoustic around brand new compositions including an adaptation of the great Hungarian composer Belà Bartok.

Despite the anger that the current world stirs up, Naissam Jalal maintains the course of gentleness. Flutist, composer and singer, she knew how to create, project after project, a music returning to its instinctive strength. Tirelessly.
Healing Rituals would perhaps be a climax, a form of the quintessence of what the flautist is looking for. His reconnection with spirit is at the origin of Healing Rituals, bringing together the traditions of Egypt, Morocco or the Americas, aimed at collective grace. “These imaginary healing rituals respond to the three imperatives of the suffering body: silence, trance and beauty. » It is a quartet formation close to the “chamber music” which embodies the modernity of these rituals.

Thierry Eliez young piano virtuoso, passionate
by Hammond, is fascinated by creativity
of Emerson, a mad composer who invents
unknown sounds and associates them with large
classical works and even jazz. Emerson
had an absolute passion for improvisation and
in jazz, Thierry Eliez has made it an art of living:
“The music must be as elegant as
powerful, de-standardized, in permanent risk,
emulator and continually transcended”
he said. This pianist and total improviser carries
very high these values on stage and shines with its
audacity, his “lion’s robustness” wrote Louis Julien Nicolaou (Télérama), always with this
exceptional narrative delicacy which places it
“at star level” (Paris Move).
