Pianist

For five albums now, André Manoukian has drawn on Armenian music as an inexhaustible source, its colors blending perfectly with modal jazz. His piano becomes his intimate memory, his cultural heritage, a language of tenderness. Between East and West, his compositions are supported by the spectacular phrasing of Mosin Kawa's Indian tablas, the powerful double bass of Gilles Coquard, the cajón of Anissa Nehar, and the sumptuous violins of the Orchestre Appassionato conducted by Mathieu Herzog, arranged by himself and Simon Cochard. A horizon without borders, Levantine arabesques like so many initiatory routes, labyrinths that seem to follow the folds and creases of our memories. Finally, the voice of Arpi Alto, an Armenian diva, delivers two poignant lullabies.
