{"product_id":"geraldine-laurent_cooking_2019_lad","title":"Cooking","description":"'Cooking' album by Géraldine Laurent is produced by Laurent de Wilde. Géraldine wanted to call this record Cooking. Because in music as in cooking, it's a team effort to measure each ingredient for the oh-so-ephemeral perfection of the final result. Because an album is conceived like a meal and it's possible to have taste buds in your ears. Because giving pleasure is organized, weighed, tasted. Laurent de Wilde explains: \"Four years ago, in February 2015, Géraldine Laurent recorded with this quartet the album At Work, a true profession of faith in a rhythmic, lively, and limitless jazz. Since then, many concerts, travels, fermentations, and surprises, material for everything that permeates the music and makes the life of a group. And what a group! They really found each other... On double bass, Yoni Zelnik, faithful to Géraldine since her beginnings and whose roundness of sound and impeccable precision make him irreplaceable; on drums, Donald Kontomanou, perfectly at ease in the rhythmic labyrinths traced by the saxophonist and with an always surprising musicality; on piano, Paul Lay, who today enjoys a brilliant solo career, illuminating the quartet with his multicolored flashes... And of course Géraldine. Freer and more fiery than ever. Her music can be built around a phrase, or develop at length on contemplative forms, but we always find an urgency, a presence that illuminates every second of her playing. In her incessant quest for the true emotions of jazz, we hear her traversed by the souls of Rollins, Dolphy, Coltrane, Hawkins, or Parker, all resolutely striving toward the same goal... Géraldine wanted to call this record Cooking. Because in music as in cooking, it's a team effort to measure each ingredient for the oh-so-ephemeral perfection of the final result. Because an album is conceived like a meal and it's possible to have taste buds in your ears. Because giving pleasure is organized, weighed, tasted. And because we always love to hear the passing musician feeling this pleasure when he pushes open the club door and exclaims, amazed: wow... cooking! \" --- Laurent de Wilde. ---« THE ART OF THE ALTO SAX. » --- LE MONDE. ---« A magnificent personal approach and an incandescent sax playing. » --- LIBERATION. ---","brand":"Géraldine Laurent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57447831535960,"sku":null,"price":20191018.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/3521381557039.jpg?v=1780612237","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/geraldine-laurent_cooking_2019_lad","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
