Belle surprise que cet album Éphémère (mais certainement durable, je vous l’annonce!) du quatuor Manela. En vérité les deux premières lettres de chaque nom de la violoniste Marie-Neige Lavigne (Cordâme), Manela est un quartette de jazz teinté de rock et de world (musique indienne, africaine, tzigane, etc.) parcimonieusement distillés à travers la fabrique des compositions originales de l’album (toutes de Marie-Neige, sauf un titre de Don Cherry – Solidarity).L’intégration des genres est organique et naturelle. C’est habilement tissé et non patché à la va-vite comme d’autres aventures de métissage. S’en dégage un esprit de synthèse qui profite de l’instinct musical sûr de la violoniste, leader prolixe et généreuse d’un univers sonore où le lyrisme communicatif de l’instrument classique s’envole sur un coussin de rythmes propulsifs et soutenus (Jean-Félix Mailloux à la contrebasse et Pierre Tanguay à la batterie). Les crépitements ingénieux de la guitare électrique de Bernard Falaise finissent d’apporter couleur, scintillance et induction voltaïque à l’ensemble.This Éphémère album from Manela quartet is a nice surprise. The name “Manela” is made from the first two letters of each name of violinist Marie-Neige Lavigne (Cordâme). This is a jazz quartet tinged with rock and world sounds (Indian, African, gypsy music, etc.), sparingly distilled through the album’s original compositions (all by Marie-Neige, except for one track by Don Cherry – Solidarity).The integration of genres is organic, natural, and original. It’s skilfully woven, not hastily patched together like other crossover ventures. A spirit of synthesis emerges that benefits from the sure musical instinct of the violinist, the generous leader of a sound universe where the communicative lyricism of the classical instrument flies on a cushion of propulsive and sustained rhythms (Jean-Félix Mailloux on double bass and Pierre Tanguay on drums). The ingenious sparklings of Bernard Falaise’s electric guitar bring color, light, and voltaic energy to the ensemble.
