Press reviews

"Pour la sortie d’un événement discographique de la saison, deux arrangeurs et chefs parmi les plus somptueusement doués d’aujourd’hui, Christophe Dal Sasso et Lionel Belmondo font une alliance dont on se souviendra."

— Michel Contat (Télérama)


"Les arrangements sont dans la logique du texte originel, un prolongement raffiné. Ni une copie, ni une recréation, mais l’affirmation d’un héritage musical dont la tension merveilleuse agit au présent."

—Sylvain Siclier (Le Monde)


"Mon Dieu, quelle merveille de prestation ! John Coltrane méritait que son chef-d’œuvre A Love Supreme (1964) soit revisité avec panache. (…) L’interprétation en grande formation impulse une dimension nouvelle à la carrure de Coltrane. Si ce dernier avait pu assister à cette version valorisante de son œuvre, il aurait certainement applaudi avec le public enivré… A tout rompre. Pendant dix minutes."

—Bruno Pfeiffer (Libération.fr)


"À la fois respectueux et audacieux, Belmondo et Dal Sasso comprennent la démarche modale originelle, et exaltent cette compréhension en compagnie d’un all-star big band."

—Christian Larrède (Jazz News)


"Une ode panthéiste, dense, émouvante et, aussi, spectaculaire sur scène."

—Le Journal du dimanche
