La Bellevilloise au mois de Mai...

... on May 4th, for Bidaia's concert - as announced by PPG a few days ago.

I was there early enough, at 6pm, - Caroline & Mixel were fiddling with the instruments and
sound -
this gave me time, before we have dinner, to ride around the 'Halle aux Oliviers' and
outside
in order to show you this pleasant place.





For 'Soul Cook' concerts, on Wednesdays, the 'Chef' cooks up a menu in agreement with
the musical universe of the performing artists. Tonight it's the Basque Country that has
guided his hand, with happiness.

8:30 pm, Caroline and Mixel are on stage...

... and they were good and the audience appreciated - click HERE for the videos.

Meanwhile, at the bar...

With 'Agur Shiva', BIDAIA [which means 'travel' in Basque language] continues his journey
by visiting other musical cultures. 'Agur Shiva'
reflects this idea of travel by tapping into
the roots of the Basque rhythms and melodies of the main compositions, while linking
them to other traditions, notably India and Carnatic music.

Hot Eve at La Bellevilloise!

Tonight, June 15th, was the end of 'Paris Onze Bouge' Festival...
[Paris 11 or Paris onze, gives 'on se bouge', for let's move, let's swing...
In short,
let's say
Swinging Eleven !


FireTongue featured at La Bellevilloise tonight with 9 other
very good musicians
and... the whole concert was like a hellish
ride on a motor unit,
with the brass section embroidering their
phrases around
the leading beat which rumbled through your
stomach from the beginning
until the end !


Unfortunately, no one seems to have published a video of the performance, nor did I
because of memory card problems... but the atmosphere is the same in the following
videos. Enjoy it.




More on Charles Delangue: AfroBeat/Swing and Spiritual Beats, and for a good info
page, go to African Path.

Tony Allen à La BelleVilloise!




19, rue Boyer /20e -
Info@labellevilloise.com - Tél 01 46 36 07 07


Born in Nigeria in 1940 of mixed Nigerian and Ghanaian parentage, Tony Allen is perhaps the most
highly-regarded African drum set player to emerge since World War II. Drimmers and other musicians
of all backgrounds marvel at his uniquely polyrhythmic style. Allen belongs on one hand to a tradition
of African drum set playing associated with the Gahanian drummer Kofi Ghanaba (Guy Warren) and
historically rooted ib British military drumming, European ballroom dance music, bigband jazz drumming
and indigenous percussion traditions. However, he is also an African exponent of the African-American
tradition of modern jazz drumming typified by musicians such as Art Blakey, Elvin Jones and Max Roach.
