Olivier Collette Quartet

Inspiration can come unexpectedly or by dispensing with strict rules. The pianist Olivier Collette has put himself in the lead of composing a repertoire based on the golden ratio.
All his compositions - his rhythms, his durations, his intensities - were based on this fascinating principle. Relax, you will have neither to calculate nor to check, but just to succumb. The melodies are drawn with great clarity and astonishing evidence. They sometimes recall those of Pat Metheny or Kenny Barron. In Collette’s music, everything is enchanting and luminous, and tender too. You will, for sure, want to hum these tunes as if they were already familiar to you. Yet everything is new and renewed each time.
