Here’s an interesting little disc from a French pianist that might pique your attention. Baptiste Trotignon mixes and matches his ivory talents between a regular trio (with Thomas Bramerie/b and Dre’ Pallemaerts/dr and duets & trios with various sympathetic vocalists. Of the former, there’s a thoughtful jaunt on”End of a Gig” and some colorful Cape Verdian rhythms on “Choro D Cigarra.” Vocalist Jeanne Added lends her lithe voice to a tropical “La Repetition” and a noodling “Du Bist Die Ruh,” while Monica Passos delivers one of the high points on “Gone” which starts with a whimper and leads up to a crescendo of a bang. Melody Gardot shows up for a very hip “Mon Fantome” while Christophe Miossec’s low tenor creates an intimate duet with the pianist on “Palavas-les-Flots.” Varied and very interesting.
