Julien Alour Quartet "Light In The Box"

Julien Alour has just been nominated for the Victoires du Jazz for his new album with chiaroscuro tones. Light in the box emerges from the shadows, like a confined, contained and simmering idea, which frees itself, letting new contrasts, volumes and textures appear, bringing a modern and unexpected sound. This album is the assembly of opposing adjectives: thoughtful impulsiveness, nervous sweetness, shaded radiance, and while being very representative of today's jazz, it brings to those who listen to it a personal sound. and not borrowed.
