Découvrez Jean-François Gion, musicien multi-instrumentiste, mais surtout passionné de banjo 5 cordes. Regardez ses vidéos, visitez son site, guettez ses concerts et si vous désirez un professeur en Moselle, contactez-le au plus vite!
Jean-François Gion s’est pris de passion pour le banjo 5 cordes en écoutant Pete Seeger, puis s’est intéressé aux artistes américains et européens pratiquant cet instrument. Il a développé sa technique dans les deux styles, bluegrass et clawhammer. Il a été membre de plusieurs formations « Folk », a participé à différents spectacles (concerts, théâtre, jeune public, animations musicales…) , et quel que soit le style, ou le public visé, il a toujours eu un banjo à portée de la main.
Il y a quelques années, il a redécouvert le banjo Clawhammer, créatif, mélodique, expressif, et a pris conscience que ce style de banjo lui serait utile pour s’exprimer à sa façon, grâce également aux nombreuses manières d’accorder l’ instrument.
Jean-François parle de ses banjos clawhammer :
– « un vieux ‘‘Clifford Essex, Concert Grand », qu’a bien voulu me céder, il y a quelques années, Steve Waring
– un magnifique banjo, avec une touche un peu plus large (à ma demande), fait par le luthier Philippe Revel »
« A little Bird in Lyon »
« Roumania »
« Depuis de très nombreuses années, je m’adresse presque exclusivement, lors de mes spectacles, au « Jeune Public ». Parfois, ils me demandent, si je devais choisir un seul instrument, quel serait mon choix. J’hésitais. Maintenant je le sais, c’est celui avec lequel je passe de longs moments…le Banjo. » (Jean-François Gion)
