Details:
SYNOP-SIS bring you "HOME" ,
an unusual synthesis of acoustic and electric jazz,
with influences ranging from Celtic to Indian music via fractals.... heading towards a new World Music ?

After 10 years existence SYNOPSIS has a new sound, featuring Neil Gerstenberg on Celtic Whistles and alto/soprano saxophones, Claude Tedesco on keyboards and Alain Ruard on drums, not forgetting the group''s founders :
Eric Sempe on guitar, and Marc Peillon on bass.


Synopsis perform only original compositions with a Jazz sound, but incorporating various ethnic influences: Cemenelum, based on a traditional provençal melody; Afrod''asiac, built from an Indian Raga; Sacred Geometry derived using the concepts of fractal music; and many tunes coloured by Celtic Jazz.


The best name for this music will depend on the listener, but one thing is certain: the pure acoustic sound is very present. The emphasis is not on decibels, but on creating a world of shifting landscapes.

Their latest album, "Home", is full of surprises, not least of which a rare guest appearance by world-famous alto saxophone star David Sanborn. Some will recognize the melodic compositions of Eric Sempe and Marc Peillon, and discover new pieces by Claude Tedesco in a Jazz vein, by Neil Gerstenberg (afro-scottish polyrythmic celtic jazz...), and by drummer Alain Ruard. The setting is more intimate than ever before with Marc Peillon often playing double-bass, and Eric Sempe on Guitar-Sitar.
