│release notes.
Andy Emler is not a jazzman, rather an adventurer of the
improvisation. For his numerous pieces, this turbulent pianist,
fond of big bands, does not hesitate to draw his sound material
from as various repertoires as the Basque, Danish, Tibetan, rock,
funk or jazz traditions. His key-words: humor, jubilation and
energyàCaution, it may mess up your hair!
Andy Emler has not exactly covered the classical route of a good
jazzman. It is rather the opposite. First, he discovers the music
through piano lessons with a classical organist, a lady he has
known from his early childhood (he was born in 1958). Being
assiduous, he thus gets an astonishing technique à for classical
music. Then, as a teenager, he is much more attracted by Genesis or
Led Zeppelin than by Miles or Coltrane (to whom he hardly listens).
The bands he then sets up play a music reminding some destructured
rock-pop rather than hard-bop or even free jazz. In fact, his
encounter with jazz will only take place at the music academy! Even
in a roundabout way. Since, obviously, jazz is still almost
banished in this noble house! But, fortunately for him, Andy Emler
gets as a teacher one of the masters of improvised music
(essentially baroque music): Marius Constant. It is not yet jazz,
but it is coming closer. The real jazz (however rather free), he
gets to know it thanks to his schoolmate Antoine Herve, who will
become his friend. Together they set up a noticeable
piano-vibraphone duo ( it is not yet a piano-bass-drums- saxophone
quartet!). Then, finally, a quintet! The band is completed: a
guitar (Marc Ducret), a trumpet (Francois Chassagnite), a bass
(Philippe Talet) and a drums (Francois Verly). In a very baroque
spirit, Andy Emler intends to stimulate with this band a
spontaneous instrumentation and enhances each musicians creativity
and personality. In other words, this is jazz music, but jazz
absolutely set upon the future! At the same time, he plays the
keyboards of the big band led by his friend Antoine HervΘ
(1984-1985). Then, in 1986, Francois Jeanneau, appointed by the
French Ministry of Culture to conduct the first Orchestre National
de Jazz, invites him to join the first generation of French jazz
music. Within this structure, Andy literally explodes. He composes
two pieces for the orchestra, whose titles already express their
explosive character: Superfrigo and especially Motorcycle Nana (no
comments)!
