TERRANOVA  I  LÉTÉ  I  CUISINIER

New, innovative, surprising.
Claude Terranova piano, Christian Lété drums, Arnault Cuisinier contrabass.

This project written and carried by the pianist Claude Terranova is an echo diametrically opposed to these previous recordings.

This funambulist of improvisation and real-time creation is also a renowned composer, who, back in the field of writing, remakes, with the complicity of two great musicians of the jazz world, the art of trio.

NOVATrio explodes the classic roles of the three instruments of the trio. It's not just a trio. It is a group, with a group sound, a group energy that generates a music both subtle and muscular with accents sometimes jazz, but especially pop, blues or music of the world.

All the pieces that make up this project are written. The part left to improvisation, even if it exists, is not the main constituent.

NOVATrio is a music that draws its strength, its scale, in minimalism; His mobility, his versatility in a repetitive universe, while developing a thematic space very melodic.

The writing of this music generates an innovative sound, plays with multiple cultures, very marked, and always easily accessible.

NOVATrio is a music where pleasure is king, or writing creates a unique sound. Innovative, open, affordable, rich, generous and lively music.
