Info zu HUSH

HUSH ist ein Album mit Originalmusik der zeitgenössischen Jazzkünstler „Le Boeuf Brothers“ (die eineiigen Zwillinge Pascal und Remy Le Boeuf) mit den langjährigen Weggefährten Dayna Stephens, Linda May Han Oh und Christian Euman. Das Album lotet die Extreme leiser Darbietungen mit Nahmikrofonierung aus und schafft so einen einzigartigen Ansatz für das Komponieren und Improvisieren im Ensemble. Wie ein leises, geflüstertes Gespräch erzeugt die Musik eine Atmosphäre von Wärme und luftiger Intimität. Die Brüder erklären: „Wir hatten das Bedürfnis nach etwas Friedlichem und Weitem, das uns an einen anderen Ort entführt, und haben ein Album aufgenommen, das diesen Ort verkörpert.“ Die Musik dreht sich um Themen wie Wiedersehen, Familie und die damit verbundenen Ankünfte und Abschiede im Leben.

Rémy Le Boeuf, Altsaxophon
Pascal Le Boeuf, Klavier

The Le Boeuf Brothers
are "talented musicians and award-winning composers who channel their influences, environments, and resources into works that reflect their own identities." (All About Jazz). Pianist Pascal Le Boeuf and saxophonist Remy Le Boeuf "pursue a hyper-fluent streamlined modern ideal" (New York Times) with "an impressive level of sophistication." (San Francisco Chronicle). Together, they have received 6 GRAMMY nominations for their innovative compositional projects, which span as broadly stylistically as they do collaboratively.

Their latest project, HUSH (2023), crafts an atmosphere of intimacy and solace with its innovative compositions and experimental recording techniques. Past projects include imaginist (2016) in collaboration with JACK Quartet; House Without A Door (2009) "an impressively self-assured new album, which reaches for the gleaming cosmopolitanism of our present era" (New York Times); In Praise of Shadows (2011), which "deftly blends elements of electronica with touches of indie rock and sophisticated jazz writing on this genre-defying project" (JazzTimes); and Remixed (2013) an "open-minded and masterfully crafted precursor of things to come" (All About Jazz) featuring collaborations with David Binney, Knower, and others.

In addition to their work as performers/composers with Le Boeuf Brothers, Remy and Pascal take part in a number of diverse projects. Remy leads a jazz orchestra called Assembly of Shadows, serves as the chief conductor of the Nordkraft Big Band in Denmark, and has written for the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis. Pascal tours with his hybrid chamber ensemble Ritual Being and jazz piano trio Pascal’s Triangle (with Linda May Han Oh and Justin Brown), is a Guggenheim Fellow, a Harold W. Dodds Honorific Fellow and Ph.D. candidate in music composition at Princeton University, and is currently an Assistant Professor of Practice in Music and Technology at Vanderbilt University.
