LES PORCHES

This is quite the cd. I never expected Canada to produce such fine music but this cd really floored me. It is a beautiful blend of classical and jazz. Rock and folk elements are few and far between and add to the overall atomphere, with amazing mood swings. Some of the segues felt a little awkward. You go from a nice jam to near silence to something completly different almost, all kind of unexpected. But because of the various pace changes you don't get the sense of one long jam or over indulgence and noodling. Overall, a lost gem.
