C’est confirmé! Après leur concert au théâtre du Châtelet, Thierry Lecocq, Jean-Marie Redon et Sharon Lombardi auront l’infime plaisir de jouer à nouveau avec Gilles Apap et l’orchestre de Picardie en décembre 2009.
Lorsque Sharon Lombardi se présente au cours de banjo de Jean-Marie Redon, tous deux sont bien loin d’imaginer que c’est la naissance d’un partenariat artistique exceptionnel. Non seulement Sharon est extrêmement rapide à comprendre la technique du banjo, mais continuant sur sa lancée, elle apprend avec efficacité la basse. Constatant les aptitudes de Sharon, Jean-Marie l’encourage en l’incluant dans ses projets artistiques. De là est né un véritable duo.
Leurs sensibilités proches leur ont donné envie d’enrichir encore leurs compétences, en développant un répertoire vocal et en apprenant le clog-dance (claquettes). Parallèlement, ils créent une animation musicale pour enfants. Enfin, ils ajoutent à leurs projets la production d’une méthode vidéo de banjo, activité qu’ils comptent étendre à d’autres instruments.
La passion de Bluegrass selon Jean-Marie Redon et Sharon Lombardi.
METHODE DE BANJO
La renommée de Jean-Marie Redon est internationale et il est cité dans la publication américaine Les Maîtres du banjo à cinq cordes et SPBGMA, la société américaine des musiciens professionnels, lui a décerné un prix pour sa carrière. Jean-Marie Redon a toujours été un pionnier dans son style musical et a collaboré avec des groupes majeurs français et européens lors de tournées en Europe et aux Etats-Unis. Il a joué avec des artistes tels que : Alain Bashung, Joe Dassin, Jean-Félix Lalanne, Marcel Dadi, Jean-Jacques Milteau, etc. Il a produit des émissions sur la musique bluegrass pour Canalweb (télévision sur internet). Il a écrit plusieurs ouvrages pédagogiques sur le banjo. De nos jours, et avec Sharon Lombardi, il tourne avec Mox Gowland (blues), et Blue Railroad Train (bluegrass), David Rolland, aussi bien en Europe qu’aux États-Unis.
La nouvelle méthode de Banjo en DVD débarque le 29 octobre 2009.
Gilles Apap, violoniste virtuose bien connu des milieux de la musique classique, a décidé de s’entourer de divers musiciens bluegrass, dont Jean-Marie Redon, Sharon Lombardi et Thierry Lecoq, afin de surprendre son auditoire en clôturant ses concerts avec de la musique bluegrass.
Leur collaboration a démarré de façon fulgurante en 2006 puisqu’il s’agissait de jouer au festival Les Violons de la Paix, créé par Yehudi Menuhin, puis de l’accompagner au Théâtre du Châtelet où il se produisait avec l’orchestre philharmonique Pas-de-Loup.
2009 :
Allemagne avec l’orchestre philharmonique de Freiburg,
France Paris au Théâtre du Châtelet avec l’orchestre philharmonique Pas-de-Loup le samedi 31 janvier
21-year-old Appalachian phenom Colby T. Helms shares his latest single, “Daddy’s Pocket Knife.” The vulnerable track centers around Helms’ journey through grief and reconciliation.
After the passing of his father at age 12, Helms searched everywhere for the pocket knife his father carried every day of his life, but was unable to find it. Years later, in a completely random moment, Helms happened upon it in the bottom of a drawer, right where his late father had intended him to find it, opening a flood of suppressed emotion in the process. Colby has said he lost himself when his father passed, but finding the rusty piece of steel renewed his sense of purpose and set him on the path to a life in music.
