Jacques Kuba Séguin - Parfum no.1 (2023) [Hi-Res]

A dreamy trumpet and a minimalist piano, this is how Jacques Kuba Séguin’s CD begins.
They will soon be joined by a discreet rhythmic in an intimate and dreamlike climate that continues on several of the following tracks. One is sometimes reminded of Kenny Wheeler, a Canadian like Kuba Séguin and a lover of similar atmospheres.
The emphasis is on the dialogue between the trumpet and the piano, the two main melodic voices. Then the trumpet becomes faster while Jean-Michel Pilc‘s piano unfolds pearled notes or thick chords behind it and the atmosphere becomes denser.
