About this product
Paris-born Jean-Michel Pilc's artistry comes from an expansive imagination and a fearless sensibility of musical exploration. He is self-taught as a piano player and composer. There is liberty that comes with that, an unobstructed view of the palette of music and harmony. On his latest 'Symphony' Pilc realizes that fearlessness and freedom completely. As he explains, the genesis of the recording came in November 2021 InchRight after recording Spanish saxophonist Xose Miguelez's excellent album 'Contradictio,' and inspired by the perfect conditions at OJM Studios in Portugal - beautiful Steinway piano, perfect acoustics and technical conditions - I decided it was time for a InchspecialInch session as part of my solo project, so Xose and José Trincado, our sound engineer, were kind enough to let me sit at the piano for as long as I wanted, improvise freely, and be recorded. Without any intention other than making music, I started playing. When inspiration sets in, you leave the Inchreal worldInch and music leads you through a new universe of it's own. That's what happened, and when I stopped, everyone was so enthusiastic about the result that they generously offered to mix and master it carefully for a future which they said was inevitable.After listening to it myself, I agreed with their assessment. So here it is, and I hope the listener will go on the same journey I did that day.Inch Album Tracks 1. Leaving 2. Discovery 3. The Encounter 4. First Dance 5. Just Get Up 6. Way to Go 7. Understanding 8. Waltz for Xose 9. Not Falling This Time 10. I'll Be Back

Paris-born Jean-Michel Pilc's piano artistry comes from an expansive imagination and a fearless sensibility of musical exploration. Expressive liberty is the artistry.InchImprovisation,Inch says Pilc Inchis often associated with freedom, but beware of appearances. When inspiration strikes, music has a way to lead you from one moment to the next that gives you no choice but to follow the flow. And when all members of the band hear the same sound, all of it, and react not as individuals but as part of that sound, then it feels like home, or family. Unpredictability becomes evidence, that feeling of evidence was palpable, more than ever when we were recording the album. The music was vital, to us and to the audience, and we experienced the full gamut of human emotions.Inch Album Tracks 1. Softly As in a Morning Sunrise 2. 11 Sharp 3. Nardis 4. All Blues 5. Alive

Paris-born, New York City based pianist Jean-Michel Pilc explores this concept in depth on his new solo , What Is This Thing Called? Under the most optimal conditions, Pilc recorded what amounts to unique themes and variations based on the much-revered Cole Porter chestnut, InchWhat Is This Thing Called Love?Inch Instead of creating a tedious exercise in rehashing similar idea after similar idea, the recording presents a tremendous portrait of the vast musical language Pilc has developed over his three decades as a professional jazz musician.
