Christophe Dal Sasso - Le Carnajazz des animaux '2024

Tracks list

At the head of a breathtaking jazz orchestra, Christophe Dal Sasso revisits Le
Carnaval des animaux by Camille Saint-Saëns. With the exception of a few
pieces (The Swan, Aquarium), it is humor and lightness, perhaps even mockery and
irony that characterizes this work. Under the fertile pen of one of the greatest
French jazz orchestrators and arranger, the text of the 14 movements remains
faithful to the original. The work of arrangement and re-orchestration open up
improvisation tracks for exceptional soloists such as David El Malek, Sophie
Alour, Thomas Savy, Pierre de Bethmann or Julien Alour. This adaptation
nevertheless gives a more moving and even introspective character to certain
pieces. The rhythmic piano, double bass, drums plunges us into a whirlwind of
swing where all the animals dance joyfully. How joyful! How beautiful Le
Carnajazz des Animaux!
