PERRENOUD GHIO DUO

Marc Perrenoud { piano }

Sylvain Ghio { drums }

The piano drum duo is an association that gives enormous freedom to the partaking musicians. This unconventional formula, infrequently visited up to now, allows to escape the classical structures of jazz (metronome dictated rhythm, cyclical microforms...) offering the possibility to modify certain parameters (harmony, form, rhythm) Both instruments are of the soloist type and the drums, often used as the guarantor of rhythm in more traditional bands, occupies in this case a place of its own and may thus express itself freely.

Its role changes here and allows one to discover a more lyrically tinted aspect of the instrument.
