JeanYves Bosseur, Collectif Musique Verte - Musiques Vertes

Review by Tatiacha Bhodsvatan

The album Musiques Vertes by JeanYves Bosseur, Collectif Musique Verte is a unique and refreshing take on contemporary music. The album features a variety of instruments, including traditional ones like the piano and violin, as well as unconventional ones like the waterphone and glass harmonica. The use of these instruments creates a soundscape that is both ethereal and organic.

The album is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of nature. Part One, "Le Jardin Extraordinaire," features pieces that evoke the beauty of a garden, with its vibrant colors and delicate flowers. Part Two, "Les Arbres et la Forêt," is a meditation on trees and forests, with pieces that range from the tranquil to the ominous. Part Three, "Les Oiseaux et la Mer," features pieces that evoke the sounds of birds and the sea, with its crashing waves and gentle tides. Finally, Part Four, "Le Ciel et les Etoiles," is a contemplation of the heavens, with pieces that evoke the mystery and wonder of the cosmos.

Throughout the album, the musicians of Collectif Musique Verte demonstrate their skill and sensitivity, creating a rich and varied tapestry of sound. The compositions of JeanYves Bosseur are both complex and accessible, with melodies that are both haunting and beautiful. The result is an album that is both thought-provoking and emotionally engaging.
