Our Take

Laurent Coq's latest offering, "Dialogues," is like a musical conversation between two old friends. The French pianist effortlessly blends elements of jazz, classical, and even a hint of avant-garde to create a sound that is both familiar and fresh.

From the opening track, "Chromatic Dialogue," it's clear that Coq is a master of his craft. His intricate piano work dances around the melodies with precision and grace, creating a sense of tension and release that is both captivating and satisfying.

But it's not just Coq's technical prowess that shines on this album. The collaboration with saxophonist Miguel Zenon adds another layer of depth and complexity to the music. Zenon's soulful yet dynamic playing perfectly complements Coq's more contemplative style, creating a musical dialogue that is both engaging and thought-provoking.

Tracks like "Crossing Paths" and "Parallel Lives" showcase the duo's ability to seamlessly weave together different musical ideas and influences, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is at once challenging and accessible.

In the end, "Dialogues" is a testament to Coq's skill as a composer and performer, as well as his ability to blend genres and styles with ease. It's a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that pushes boundaries and defies categorisation.
