Program notes
A star-studded, genre-traversing cast celebrate French virtuoso violinist Dider Lockwood! A central figure of contemporary jazz for over four decades, Lockwood is known for both an unabashed curiosity—perhaps best evidenced in projects like Omkara, a collaboration with choreographer Raghunath Manet, or the infamous electronic "seagull" imitations that peppered his peformances—and a desire to share it so deep that he created his own learning method, "Cordes et âmes" ("strings and soul"). The stars that share the stage of the Théâtre du Châtelet in this festive concert give us a retrospective of an impressive career dating back to the 1970s.
