"ITCH"

I'm very exited to present a new project called "ITCH". It's a piano solo set augmented with preparations and electronics. It's an evolution of a performance I did in September 2021 commissioned by Theatre de l'Echandole in Yverdon.

 

Have a listen!

The Colin Vallon Trio played numerous concerts at international festivals in Europe, Asia and North America. He also gives solo concerts and performs with his latest project along with Matthieu Michel on trumpet and Jorge Rossy on drums. He is also active as a composer, creating music for various projects including the pieces by choreograph Martin Zimmermann.

Trio

COLIN VALLON TRIO

Colin Vallon - piano

Patrice Moret - double bass

Julian Sartorius - drums

"Pianist Colin Vallon, double bassist Patrice Moret and drummer Julian Sartorius, collectively contemplate before moving mountains. Their energy rises from a quiet center breathy percussion, shaded pulse, and gives this moving collection a tidal quality. Gentle yet thunderous, hypnotic, expansive and heart-paced..."

Solo

PIANO SOLO

Colin Vallon reaches for the heart of things with just a few notes ; his melodies reveal a rare and detached beauty. Vallon is capable not only of sensitive discreteness but also of flamboyant exuberance, his improvisations are marked by their wealth of ideas and their stringency. The way he connects a basic lyrical idea with investigative determination is unaffected and touchingly breathtaking.

Pianist Colin Vallon joins forces with two of the most prominent and original European musicians: trumpetist Matthieu Michel, whose unmistakable sound could  by itself, be the definition of beauty, and drums wizard Jorge Rossy, one of the most influential musician today.
