Over the last years, Cedric Bovet composed several nice jazz pieces. Cedric and his brother Lucien expressed a common wish
to have them recorded someday, the challenge being to find a bass-player able to upgrade them in a trio formula. Ira Coleman
gently accepted to join us for a recording session and a few concerts. Ira, a fantastic and creative bass-player who played with
famous musicians as Herbie-Hancock, Tony Williams, Freddy Hubbard and Betty Carter during his career accepted the
challenge to play Cedric’s music with us. After rehearsing some Cedric’s compositions it clearly appeared that some of them
required a richer musical background to fully express their substance. We therefore asked our great friend and impressive
trombonist Samuel Blaser and the young talented pianist Mathieu Scheuber to be part of the recording session for some
pieces. Finally the alchemy between us turned out to be so effective that we recorded enough music for two CD’s, one in trio
and the second in a quartet or quintet package. We hope that our musical and human experience will touch you as much as it
filled us with positive sensations, peace and love.
