Leaf Music, 2025<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Avec son dernier album <\/span>What if?<\/span><\/i> paru chez Leaf music,<\/span> Joel Miller<\/a> et ses amis musiciens nous invitent \u00e0 vivre une exp\u00e9rience musicale multiple, en partant bien s\u00fbr de son propre univers musical en tant que compositeur. Les cinq premi\u00e8res pi\u00e8ces nous mettent le sourire aux l\u00e8vres. Elles ont surtout le m\u00e9rite d\u2019\u00eatre chacune assez distinctive des autres, preuve de la diversit\u00e9 de cet univers inspir\u00e9 par le jazz, sur un rythme souvent dansant. On peut seulement regretter que le piano soit plac\u00e9 trop en arri\u00e8re-plan, notamment par rapport au saxophone.<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u2019arrangement de <\/span>Clair de lune <\/span><\/i>de Debussy d\u2019Andrew Reed Miller<\/a> donne \u00e0 entendre de beaux \u00e9changes de la m\u00e9lodie entre le violon et le saxophone. D\u2019autres compositions de Joel Miller renforcent l\u2019interaction des deux instruments, au point que parfois leurs sonorit\u00e9s se confondent \u00e0 l\u2019oreille. Les vibrations de la contrebasse se font plus pr\u00e9sentes dans <\/span>Wait for it<\/span><\/i>, une des pi\u00e8ces les plus langoureuses de l\u2019album. Le charme se poursuit quelques instants plus tard avec une reprise de <\/span>What a Wonderful World<\/span><\/i>. Chaque piste se suit naturellement et nous fait passer sans rupture d\u2019un \u00e9tat d\u2019esprit \u00e0 un autre. Si le <\/span>Canon <\/span><\/i>de Pachelbel fait la part belle aux sonorit\u00e9s envo\u00fbtantes du xylophone, l\u2019album finit de mani\u00e8re dynamique, sur un rythme enlevant, qui rappelle le caract\u00e8re jazz\u00e9 des d\u00e9buts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bref, un album relaxant, comme un baume sur les contrari\u00e9t\u00e9s du quotidien.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
