The French duo Petite Vengeance witnesses a dialogue between Raphaël Quenehen’s saxophones and Jérémie Piazza’s percussions and guitar, set in a background of both a real and a fantasized America. Country music merges into improvisation, blues into rock music, and spoken words into smoother melodies. An excellent synthesis of continents that does not take itself too seriously yet explores various styles within the same register: that of joy, of laughter and of a certain rock ’n roll spirit…
“When two mainstays of the Rouen collective “Les Vibrants Défricheurs” and of the excellent Papanosh band – a “breeder-producer” of a contemporary, fizzy and cross-bred jazz ! – decide to play in a duo, the result is mind-blowing! Petite Vengeance: as the return of the crashing energy and crazy collages of the late-lamented Clusone trio (Bennink, Reiseger, Moore); as a revisited farcical version of Johnny Cash by Ornette Coleman; as Bernard Lubat meeting Raymond Scott (Tex Avery!).”
Armand Meignan, Director of the Europa Jazz
