| Didier Verna ’@-quartet’: first album just released French guitarist, singer and composer Didier Verna comes back to his primary instrument, the guitar, leading a brand new group: the "@-quartet" after two years touring as a tenor with the Voice Messengers (a Paris vocal jazz big band). Accompanied by three of the most solicited sidemen from the Paris Jazz scene (Gilles Naturel on bass, Guillaume Naud on piano and David Georgelet on drums), Didier Verna offers a 100% original repertoire of contemporary, melodic jazz, in the vein of Pat Metheny, John Scofield and Mike Stern. The first album of this new group has just been released, and is already unanimously acclaimed. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
