Parcours Métropolitain

In its very genesis, Yusan bears witness to a collective desire to create. The sextet met for the first time at the Maison des Artistes in Chamonix and the alchemy worked immediately.

Yusan is an illustration of the ferment that reigns within the young jazz scene in France. As a cultural and artistic crossroads, jazz brings together musicians from very different backgrounds, who pool their cultures to create a new sound.

The influences and itineraries of each musician are expressed in compositions where jazz irrigates and mixes with various aesthetics, Caribbean music, world music, gospel.

On stage, the group impresses with its precision and energy, giving birth to swaying melodies and groovy ballads that will make you want to sway to the beat!

Between playful saxophones and trumpets that are a little bit on the ball… and on fire, the mix is woven! It’s hot, it’s pulsating!

This is what awaits you with “Chiraj”, “Danser”, “Elastic Love”, “Abanda”, or “I’m Gone”.

Emile Parisien has established himself as a major musician on the French jazz scene. Surrounded by exceptional American musicians, trumpeter Théo Croker, bassist Joe Martin and drummer Nassheet Waits, associated with two great figures of current jazz, guitarist Manu Codja and pianist Roberto Negro, he presents “Louise”, a tribute to a series of sculptures by Louise Bourgeois that celebrates the maternal image.

At the dawn of his fortieth year, Emile Parisien signs an album that resembles him, off the beaten track, mixing the Afro-American tradition, European jazz and the
tradition, European jazz, popular tunes, fusion swerves and experimental commas. This brand new and wonderfully intriguing sextet promises us a great moment of music.
