Idioma disponible: inglés
It's just an American lad and his mandolin. One imagines an Appalachian grandpa strumming the bluegrass hits with calloused fingers – since Bill Monroe, the instrument has become a symbol of the genre. But Chris Thile, a gifted virtuoso, is playing something else. This man started playing mandolin at 8 and released his first album at 12. He is now 40, and he has taken the mandolin places it was never expected to be seen: classical music, jazz, various progressive forms of traditional music. Laysongs is the first album where he truly performs a solo act with mandolin and vocals. Recorded in a deconsecrated church in New York, this album is a miracle. This is not an exercise in style, but an album by a folksinger who plays his instrument with the free dexterity of a jazzman and sings with a suppleness reminiscent of the Buckleys. His songs are spirited and bright, like elusive fireflies. The genres and epochs change up fluidly, between classical music, early Americana and pop. Here is a piece of Bartók's sonata. And here, the bluegrass pearl Won't You Come and Sing for Me by Hazel Dickens. And also God Is Alive Magic Is Afoot by Buffy Sainte-Marie, which is a musical setting of a poem by Leonard Cohen. With an effect-free, all-acoustic performance, Chris Thile delivers rich music which is full of mysteries. This man is a unicorn in the vast prairie of American music, lacking a horn but packing a mandolin. © Stéphane Deschamps / Qobuz
