LIONEL BELMONDO
Lionel Belmondo is one of the most renowned & innovative saxophonists in France.
His project "Hymne au Soleil" transcended the heritage of French classical repertoire and mixed it with the freedom of Jazz improvisation. The album received unanimous critical acclaim and several awards (Victoires du Jazz). With the "Hymne au Soleil" Ensemble the saxophonist recorded a double album with the great Yusef Lateef which led to an important international tour, and an album with Milton Nascimento.
In 2012, Lionel Belmondo formed a new trio, treating and playing important pieces of the Classical Repertoire (JS Bach, Maurice Ravel...) as Jazz Standards, just like American jazzmen did with the Broadway tunes.
