“Positions” reviewed by Le Son du Grisli

Sur ces cinq pièces du compositeur Martijn Tellinga (enregistrées à différentes époques), c’est l’espace dans lequel se positionnent (positions obligent) les instrumentistes qui est inspecté, questionné et (même, ça arrive) lu… Si l’on peut craindre la collision pour ces trois trombones (Nathan Lane, Milton Rodriguez & Facundo Vacarezza) leur évolution dessine une chorégraphie de cornes …
