Michel Bisceglia Trio (BE)

The Michel Bisceglia Trio, featuring Werner Lauscher on bass and Marc Lehan on drums, celebrates its 25th anniversary this year with the release of their long-awaited new album SILENCE LOUD.

Respecting traditional jazz, they create cinematic passages with plenty of room for polyphonic melodies and contrasting harmonies. Not a note too many and impeccable timing transport you as a listener to higher musical realms. Michel Bisceglia decided to pen some last-minute string arrangements during production. The excellent contribution of The Hongarian Studio Orchestra makes this new album a unique gem.

“Just as you can love Mozart, Chopin, Miles Davis or George Gershwin, you can also fall in love with the music of pianist Michel Bisceglia, with the important difference that he does live and you can attend his concerts in real time and enjoy his piano oeuvre live” – rootstime.be

That Bisceglia’s compositions are cinematic and contain great emotional expressiveness has not escaped Hollywood’s notice either. For instance, he was recently allowed to compose the music for the British-Canadian animated film ‘Charlotte’, starring none other than Keira Knightley. For this, Michel Bisceglia was recently nominated for another World Soundtrack Award. Earlier, he also had the honour of festively opening the C-mine exhibition on Tim Burton in the presence of the director himself.
