Deschamps, Marc
Sucre Sale
"The compositions of Marc Deschamps weave together to form a poetic universe: their successive themes recall the sensual harmony of a romantic piano, the impish ditties of an Erik Satie, or the crystal-clear elegance one associates with a Keith Jarrett. His scores have provided rhythms for many films made for television and the cinema, and they've earned him an enviable reputation: the only thing missing was a trio-recording of his own that featured all his influences. 'SucrE salE', recorded with Pierre Guillemant and Vincent Cordelette, does justice to his many talents both as a composer and as a pianist: it's the consecration of a new name in the history of the piano, a man writing a new chapter on this in-between genre featuring intimist jazz and spellbinding background-music."
