Marc Copland has established himself as one of the most talented, original and prolific pianists in contemporary jazz. At 74, Marc Copland has nothing left to prove. He has played with the greatest and recorded some superb albums. His touch is delicate and unobtrusive, and he takes a colourful approach to harmony. An admirer of the Impressionist painters, he seems to want to reproduce their style in a hushed style of playing, attentive to nuances, the better to achieve a form of sensuality.
The pianist will be presenting his latest album, in quartet. "Someday" is the first word in Someday My Prince Will Come, the famous Cinderella song immortalised by Miles Davis. Marc Copland will be coming to the Crescent for the first time with a magnificent team: the remarkable Belgian tenor saxophonist Robin Verheyen, and a top-flight French rhythm section with double bassist Stéphane Kerecki and drummer Fabrice Moreau. A top-class quartet that displays the elegance we've come to associate with its leader over the years, a master of understatement and melodic evanescence. A pianist of genius, absolutely worth discovering.
With Marc Copland - piano, Robin Verheyen - tenor sax, Stéphane Kerecki - double bass, and Fabrice Moreau - drums.
