For this new album, Baptiste Herbin called on an artistic director for the first time, finding in Daniel Yvinec an enlightened and stimulating interlocutor who, after hearing him play a Django theme during a jam session, suggested the subject of this album. Together, they put together a repertoire that creates a fascinating universe around the guitarist: some of his emblematic compositions skilfully reworked, intoxicating musette waltzes, plus a choro dedicated to him by Herbin, a moving tribute by pianist John Lewis, and a stunning re-reading of ‘Night and Day’ in which Baptiste takes Django’s original solo harmonised for two saxophones with an elegance and naturalness that confirm the validity of the undertaking.
