Troendle, Sebastien
Rag'n Boogie (piano Solo)
SEbastien told me he wanted to become a musician after going to see a concert my orchestra played in Alsace when he was ten_ Twenty years have gone by since then, and he came to my home in autumn 2013 with a record in his hand and a lot of fire in his fingers. I'm happy this new gene ra tion is still bringing the same passion to this music I love so much." Claude BOLLING SEbastien TroendlE is a demanding, generous pianist who's following in the steps of Claude Bolling (a guardian-figure for this young musician.) His passion is unshakeable, and his vocation is to share the authenticity of Ragtime and Boogie, the music-styles which emerged in the barrelhouses of ghettoes along the Mississippi and lie at the source of Jazz and Rhythm & Blues, both of them major 20th century genres.Patrick FREMEAUX
