Building on a remarkable technique and a fertile imagination,
French trombonist Yves Robert has created a very personal
universe which sometimes expands beyond the confines of jazz
but never bows to fashion. Yves Robert studied flute and
trombone at the Music Conservatory in Vichy. Early in his
career, Robert made quick transitions from Dixieland to hard
bop to free jazz. His growing reputation earned him stints with
some fine bands: Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath,
Bernard Lubat's La Compagnie Lubat, and the first edition of
the Orchestre National de Jazz in 1986. Later, his own projects
came to fruition and revealed his rich musical ideas. In 1988,
Robert initiated his first project as a bandleader, a trio with
bassist Bruno Chevillon and drummer Aaron Scott, which he
terminated in 1990 when Scott moved back to the U.S. (where he
became a permanent fixture of the McCoy Tyner trio). In the
wake of his trio, Robert formed a quartet with Claude
Tchamitchian, Philippe Deschepper, and Alfred Spirli or Xavier
Desandre, which he disbanded by mid-decade. At that time,
Robert put together a quintet which really took shape in 1998
when saxophonist Laurent Dehors replaced Julien Lourau, the
other members being guitarist David Chevallier, bassist HΘlΦne
LabarriΦre, and drummer Cyril Atef. In parallel, he also
assembled a trio featuring cellist Vincent Courtois and the
faithful Atef. Alongside these projects, Yves Robert still
manages to make himself available as a valuable sideman, most
notably in ensembles led by Louis Sclavis and GΘrard Marais. ù
