Aga Derlak remembers her fascination with music as a young child. And once she began learning piano, she would lose hours in flowing through improvised journeys at the keyboard. This passion led her to gaining a place on the year-long Berklee Global Jazz Institute program. And in this interview, she discusses the impact that has had on many levels of her life. The founder of the project, pianist Danilo Perez, who is part of the incredible Wayne Shorter quartet was a particular influence and led Aga to work at Danilo's foundation in his homeland of Panama. You get the sense that her own beliefs about the healing power of music, and the role of musicians and music education in our society really blossomed during this time, through conversations with her tutors and peers at Berklee, and also her pupils, some of whom were part of a social program in Panama City. Aga has led her own trio and quintet and like the other rebel spirits has been invited to play at numerous jazz festivals. As she explains in her interview, travel takes on a real meaning in her life, and has directed her development as an artist. The piece she talks about, Tempo, is from her forthcoming album Parallel and includes her own vocals and those of her sister Basia Derlak. With lyrics from a poem that Aga wrote, we can hear about her attention to detail, theme and flavor, and her thoughts about the possibilities of time. Tempo. A project that is a good indicator of Aga's personality is Your Solo, exploring Polish jazz. This was her proactive reaction to the restriction of lockdown during the pandemic. She wanted to highlight the work of Polish jazz musicians such as herself, who could no longer tour or perform. Aga set about playing their compositions and interviewing these musicians. Putting everything online. The positive focus is typical of how she's able to acknowledge the darkness that descends on life but uses her determination to be constructive. Interestingly, she refers to the different sides of her character and how that comes through her music in this interview.

Margaux Vranken vient tout juste de fêter ses 30 ans. Elle est pianiste, mais aussi compositrice et arrangeuse. D'aussi loin qu'elle se souvienne le chant a toujours fait partie de sa vie. Enfant, elle aimait chanter à tue-tête Michael Jackson ou Led Zeppelin que son père écoutait volontiers Elle se souvient ainsi avec émotion d'un disque, reçu de son papa lors de ses 10 ans, et reprenant les plus grands hits des Beatles " C'est entre autre grâce à ce disque que j'ai appris l'anglais, que j'ai aimé la, et les voix sous toutes leurs formes, et peut-être appris inconsciemment à goûter aux beaux arrangements ", nous confiera la jeune artiste. C'est grâce au piano de la maison familiale, que Margaux entreprend des études aux Académies de Schaerbeek et Woluwé Saint-Lambert. "Ma mère nous a beaucoup soutenues, ma soeur et moi, dans note parcours musical. Elle a par exemple étudié 3 années de solfège avec nous, pour pouvoir nous aider. C'est quelque chose qui a beaucoup compté pour moi, et le soutien familial et/ou amical est un élément déterminant pour envisager une carrière ! ", nous dira Margaux Vranken. Après ses études secondaires et son cycle d'académie -réussi avec la plus grande distinction-, la jeune pianiste est reçue dans la section jazz du Conservatoire flamand de Bruxelles, dans la classe de piano de Diederik Wissels. Un pianiste raffiné, mais aussi compositeur et arrangeur de talent. En 2017, Margaux reçoit une bourse d'études pour étudier au Berklee College of Music afin de poursuivre un Master d'un an, au Berklee Global Jazz Institute de Boston, un département de haut niveau du collège américain. En attestent le nom de ses professeurs : Danilo Pérez, Terry Lyne Carrington, John Patitucci, Joe Lovano. De très solides études et connaissances musicales qui permettent aujourd'hui à la jeune artiste bruxelloise d'envisager une triple carrière: de pianiste bien sûr, mais aussi de compositrice et d'arrangeuse. Un défi qu'elle relève aujourd'hui avec son disque "Purpose" (le but, l'objectif, le dessein, la voie...) qui paraît en ce moment chez IGLOO. Une production qui est le fruit de son année de travail passionné et acharné au "Berklee college of Music" de Boston. C'est là qu'elle a rencontré quasiment tous les musiciens (ndlr. : ils sont 13) de ce disque. "Purpose" a été enregistré à Brooklyn, et est constitué de dix compositions originales de la pianiste, qui en a aussi signé tous les arrangements. Le résultat est décoiffant : on passe par des climats très différents, en fonction de l'effectif instrumental. Margaux a tenu à créer autant de contrastes que possible, c'est ce qui lui tient le plus à coeur dans l'écriture, et les arrangements Elle s'est ainsi entourée d'un quatuor à cordes, de trois souffleurs, trois chanteuses, un guitariste, et un rythmique contrebasse/batterie. Des musiciens de haut vol, et du monde entier, qui ont fait leur classe, -comme notre invitée-, au Global institute de Berklee. Musiciens à la technique et à la maturité impressionnantes, ils mettent en valeur les compositions de Margaux Vranken, qui, toujours sont construits à partir de mélodies rudement bien ficelées. Elle réussit ce grand écart si difficile, entre de belles mélodies, faciles d'accès, et un jazz d'aujourd'hui, qui n'hésite pas à s'exprimer d'une manière exigeante, sans compromission aucune. "Purpose" est un magnifique travail, une production qu'on vous recommande, l'un de ces disques que l'on peut réécouter à l'envi, tant les couches qui le composent sont subtiles et nombreuses ! Margaux Vrancken: une artiste très complète, passionnante, et attachante et dont les compositions font avancer le jazz dans des directions insoupçonnées. Bonne écoute!

Ciao a tutte e a tutti.Febbraio ci ha fatto salire in casa e ci ha fatto accomodare, ma è tutto indaffarato a fare mille cose. Ci sta preparando un the, deve pensare al tempo metereologico, ha messo a stendere i fiori prima di farli schiudere, nel frattempo deve fare una video call con Gennaio e Marzo per la gestione delle consegne, insomma i mesi nella loro gioventù sono sempre carichi di entusiasmo ma un po’ confusi. Noi allora ci prendiamo il compito di farlo rallentare e di farlo respirare, invitandolo a godersi la nuova Onda che è pronta per esprimere tutta la sua bellezza.Cercando un po’ di ristoro in una bolla sospesa dal quotidiano istituzionale davvero discutibile, lasciamo che sia il bello, le buone vibrazioni a tessere la coperta con la quale ci avvolgiamo oggi, compito che sarà svolto da questa sesta puntata. L’episodio, oggi, sarà, come tutti gli altri che lo hanno preceduto foriero di musiche e racconti. La voce narrante che siede con me oggi, è quella della grande ospite Francesca Remigi. Francesca figlia d’arte, è una delle espressioni più grandi ed interessanti del panorama jazz moderno: batterista, compositrice, polistrumentista, vincitrice del premio Nuova Generazione Jazz 2021 ha suonato su i più importanti palchi di questa enorme corrente musicale tra cui il London Jazz Festival 2020, the North Sea Jazz Festival, Brussels Jazz Weekend 2019 e Una Striscia di Terra Feconda Jazz Festival. Ha vinto diverse residenze (Umbria Jazz, Siena Jazz e La Casa del Jazz a Roma solo per citarne alcune) e borse di studio che l’hanno portata in giro in varie nazioni dove ha potuto ampliare i suoi studi con musicisti di altissimo livello e iniziando delle collaborazioni artistiche molto importanti, tra cui l’ultima al Berklee Global Jazz Institute.Francesca ha all’attivo il suo primo LP di jazz progressive con un sestetto di musicisti internazionali dal nome Archipélagos con i quali ha dato alla luce la sua creatura meravigliosa “Il Labirinto dei topi", in cui lei suona la batteria e di cui ne ha curato la scrittura, composizione e direzione, un album che è un capolavoro d’arte sonora. Come sapete Onde podcast va a curiosare sotto alle metaforiche cuffie delle ospiti e degli ospiti per sbirciare e ascoltare quelli che sono i loro ascolti privati. Francesca per la sua puntata ha quindi raccolto una dozzina di brani che vi lasceranno a bocca aperta, sono brani di incredibile bellezza e freschezza, brani a cui lei è legata a doppio filo e poi vedrete come, dove verremo portati tutti ad ascoltare delle musiche magnifiche, probabilmente ai più, come il sottoscritto, fino ad ora sconosciute. Ma visto che ciò che accomuna tutti quelli che sono qui su Onde: Musica e Dintorni, è la curiosità, lasciamoci trasportare in un mondo estremamente variopinto, pieno di suoni, di contaminazioni e musiche pazzesche dalla voce di Francesca Remigi, e dai suoi brani che ci faranno immergere nel vasto oceano del Jazz, e non solo…Immergetevi con noi, leggere e leggeri, lasciando i suoni al di la del pelo d’acqua sonora e come sempre, buon ascolto!
