The French Scene - Part 4 [Mondo Jazz 121-2]

In this final installment of our exploration of today's French jazz scene, a number of projects that illustrate how beautifully French musicians blend their many influences, from troubadour music of the middle-ages to pop songs of the '60s and '70s, and interests, from Greek mythology to the M-Base collective.

The playlist features Manu Codjia, Geraldine Laurent, Christophe Marguet, Camille Bertault, Sarah Murcia, Louis Sclavis, Sélène Saint-Aimé [pictured], Michel Portal, Alban Darche, Matthieu Donarier, Meivelyan Jacquot, Sophia Domancich, Magic Malik, Stéphane Payen, Alexandra Grimal, Joelle Leandre, Noël Akchoté, Marc Ribot and Sylvain Rifflet.

Happy listening!
