« Cette machine encercle la haine et l’oblige à rendre les armes »
Il n’y pas que l’univers du banjo qui est endeuillé suite à la mort de Pete Seeger, le 27 janvier 2014. Le monde a perdu non seulement un merveilleux musicien qui a marqué et influencé plusieurs générations d’excellents artistes, mais également un grand humaniste, qui s’est battu toute sa vie contre la guerre (Vietnam), la ségrégation (combat pour les droits civiques des Noirs) ou en faveur de la défense de l’environnement. A la fois « protest singer » et « folk singer », Pete Seeger était un artiste engagé, qui faisait fi des pressions politiques, comme à l’époque du maccarthysme, et dont le talent sut si bien mettre en valeur ses idéaux et ses dénonciations (« Where have all the flowers gone ? », « If I Had a Hammer », « What Did You Learn In School? », version politique de « We Shall Overcome »). Il chanta notamment, avec Bruce Springsteen, le chef-d’œuvre de Woodie Guthrie « This Land Is Your Land », lors de la cérémonie d’inauguration de la première élection de Barack Obama (2009).
Ecoutez Pete Seeger raconter l’histoire de son banjo :
La ville de Blaye organise une très belle exposition de guitares acoustiques et électriques les 19 et 20 avril 2014. Mais il y aura aussi des banjos, car parmi les quatre luthiers présents sur place, il y aura Bruno Torrès, l’excellent luthier de banjos qu’Action Banjo avait rencontré en 2011.
Samedi soir à partir de 21h, concert avec le trio acoustique : Michel Haumont, Peter Finger et Solorazaf. Dimanche, des scènes ouvertes aux musiciens de 11h à 18h.
Cet événement aura lieu au Couvent des Minimes dans la Citadelle de Blaye.
Entrée et concert gratuits.
Samedi ouvert de 14h à 18h et dimanche de 11h à 18h.
Renseignements au 05 57 42 68 68.
Great Big World, le dernier album de Tony Trischka est sorti le 4 février 2014. C’est son 17e album solo, et on y retrouve toute la versatilité et l’inventivité qui caractérisent le talent de Tony. De nombreux invités prestigieux ont participé à ce nouveau projet, telles que les légendes du bluegrass Andy Statman, Russ Barenberg et Mike Compton, ainsi que des valeurs montantes de la nouvelle génération bluegrass comme Noam Pikelny et Abigail Washburn. Mais on y redécouvre aussi le chanteur folk Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, l’acteur John Goodman, et bien sûr son ami acteur et banjoïste Steve Martin.
Vous pouvez commander Great Big World en passant par le site de Tony Trischka, et même télécharger gratuitement un des morceaux en cliquant sur ce lien.
Action Banjo se réjouit de ce nouvel album et espère vivement pouvoir faire revenir Tony en France pour des concerts et/ou stages. Sa dernière tournée, organisée par Action Banjo, avait été une réussite et ravit tous les amoureux du banjo. Si vous êtes intéressé pour faire venir Tony Trischka, et connaissez des lieux pour l’accueillir, contactez-nous.
« Même lorsque je joue des plans modernes un peu bizarres, je reste toujours ancré dans le style Scruggs [...] Je pense qu’il est important de rester fidèle aux racines, mais j’estime aussi que les possibilités du banjo sont infinies. » (Tony Trischka)
