Amaury Faye Quartet

The latest work from pianist/composer/arranger Amaury Faye, ARISE {suite}, is a lyrical, impressionistic ode to the mountains and his mountain grandparents, retracing the stages of a mountain climb through a succession of atmospheres, from contemplative ballads to vertiginous pieces and their frenzied tempos, summoning classical music, cinema, pop, bebop and modern jazz.
Amauray Faye is a talented pianist renowned for his unique approach to music. His new album, entitled “Arise”, explores new sounds and emotions, showcasing his virtuosity at the piano and his ability to fuse different musical styles.
“The challenge was ambitious...and it's more than met with success! Not surprising, coming from one of the most prominent French pianists of the new generation. [...] The result is as pure, beautiful and cinematic as the mountains that inspired Amaury Faye during the writing phase” [TSF Jazz].
