One foot in the blues, ears open to everything, Tusques and his band (Ramadolf, Michel Marre, Benard Vitet, Sylvain Kassap, Jacques Thollot, Jean-Jacques Avenel and Jo Maka, a saxophonist who passed away too soon and to whom this album is dedicated) move from a festive atmosphere to covers of Mingus: a good excuse to shine!The Intercommunal Free Dance Music Orchestra was founded in 1971 by François Tusques, an emblematic figure of French free jazz. \"Free Jazz\" was also the name of the recording made in 1965 by the pianist and other like-minded French musicians (Michel Portal, François Jeanneau, Bernard Vitet, Beb Guérin and Charles Saudrais). But six years later, Tusques, tired of free jazz, founded the Intercommunal.He then created the association, a name under which different communities could come together and compose together, simply. In 1976, on the first album, \"L'Intercommunal\", we already hear Tusques playing without borders alongside Carlos Andreu, Ramadolf, Michel Marre and Jo Maka (at the conclusion of this volume 4, we can hear them in 1977 at the Moulin de Prades Le Lez). Over the following decade, the association continued with concerts at the Théâtre Dunois, in 1980 and 1981, welcoming former members and new recruits (Bernard Vitet, Jean-Jacques Avenel, Jacques Thollot, Sylvain Kassap...).If Vol. 4 - Jo Maka is a tribute to the Guinean saxophonist, who passed away a few months before the release of this selection of concert recordings, it also testifies to a proud collective inspiration! One foot in the blues, ears open to everything, Tusques begins with a lament that the Company quickly transforms into a joyful dance (\"Vive la Commune\"), weaves a festive and uninhibited piece (\"Poses ton fardeau et remet la machine en route\", \"7 rue des prêcheurs\", \"Mazir\") or ignites with Mingus (\"Fable Of Faubus\"). And there you have it, with so many revolutions, François Tusques is almost back to free jazz. So, it's your turn to play!","brand":"Intercommunal Free Dance Music Orchestra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57469666591064,"sku":null,"price":23920105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3491570067925.jpg?v=1780871904","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/intercommunal-free-dance-music-orchestra_vol-4-jo-maka_2025_lba","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
