About
Métarythmes de l'Air, a ten year-old band, consists of the prolific composer Christian Leroy, he is also an occasional keyboard and percussion player, contrebassist José Bedeur, a graduate from Huy Music Schaol, and Philippe Saucez, who has made a name for himself in classical clarinet playing. The trio has recently turned into an octet, with five new musicians, classical, contemporary, jazz or free-jazz: Jeannot Gillis (violin), Ivo Van Der Borght (percussions), Adelsan Defrise (flute), Philippe Leblanc (clarinet and saxophone), Christion Feron (horn).
The pieces are by Leroy, Bedeur or Saucez, sprinkled with improvisations which allow a delicate use of the various tone colours of the orchestra. Their music, expressing freedom, is played freely. It ranges from the faun-like and gymnopedic ways of Debussy or Satie, to the wide open spaces of the most extravagant free jazz or, being an octet, to the carefree and comforting pleasures of brass bands.
