From Maloya to Free Jazz: Grand Sorcerer's Spells
At the initiative of the protean guitarist Stéphane Hoareau (G!rafe, Trans Kabar…), the quintet Grand Sorcier mixes the spirit of maloya and that of free jazz… Two musics of resistance and freedom!
Recorded in a vast improvised session at the Durance theater in the Alpes de Haute-Provence, this first disc, Nénèn ("nanny" in Creole), summons, in its lush garden of sounds, in its polyphonic jungle on ternary soil, the mythologies Maloya and Reunion an initial framework conducive to risk-taking the bolder.
The title of the group, Grand Sorcier, is finally due to the Mozambican etymology, of the word "maloya".
