MICHEL PORTAL "Musiques de Cinemas" (FRA, 1995)


Michel Portal revisits themes he scored for several movies, approaching them with jazz feeling and leaving cleverly ground for eclectic contributions and creative encounters: afro-french jazz blends, fusions, improvisations, tangos... sounds that seem to know the deeper relation between the motion pictures and the seducible imagination. And round this knowledge they are unfolded emotionally.

Michel Portal, who played clarinets and saxophones, assisted here by great musicians like Ralph Towner (guitar), Paolo Fresu (trumpet), Juan Jose Mosalini (bandoneon), Richard Galliano (accordion), Nguyen Le (synth, guitar), N`Diaye Rose Doudou (percussion, tambourine) and others.
This compilation released in 1995 from LABEL BLEU.
