Once upon a time there were four musicians, young, gifted, passionate and fascinating, invited by an association, Muziketo, dedicated to music, in an enchanting place whose lord is called Fabrice. A beautiful story awaited them.
On a mild summer evening, neither too hot nor too cool, many music lovers were attracted by the announcement of a jazz concert with “Sicilian” sounds. In a setting that might not be more natural, on a ground softened by the leaves of the chestnut trees in “early autumn” and under the umbrella of a venerable music-loving oak tree, they settled down to first taste the “homemade” tapas as the uninvited sun went down.
When night had come, a few lights shining in the foliage, Yannis, the guitarist, Camille, the double bassist, Roberto the accordionist and Nicola, the clarinetist went on stage… And the enchantment began:
Like a mischievous, determined, audacious, original, gifted elf, Nicola, the Sicilian, set the tone with his clarinet!
Playing the game, Roberto, the other Sicilian, tried and succeeded by dint of talented tricks to cut through this musical torrent and express his feelings with a magic accordion and his bewitching smile. Yannis, as a good group leader, tried to restore calm, on the guitar, in order to give voice to Camille’s double bass, very accomplice, don’t worry!
Everything went crescendo! The public, dumbfounded at the start, was enchanted by the diversity of the program in which the solos, the improvisations, the antics of the clarinet, the sound effects of Roberto and Nicola, the mastery of Yannis and Camille were not lacking .
During the intermission, the musicians were showered with compliments and the public expressed their admiration and well-being. The quartet brought everyone an evening of relaxation, pleasure, recognition in beautiful music chosen with great discernment.
It was the first concert of the tour which brought them to Béziers the following evening. The tale continued….
