Il semble que "le temps du swing" soit encore et toujours le temps présent car on assiste aujourd'hui à un renouveau de la musique Jazz Swing.
La reprise de morceaux de la "Swing Era" par des Orchestres Swing actuels est une preuve incontestable de ce renouveau.
À ce jour sont proposés 83 titres avec 166 albums présentés
Notre dernier coup de
album "Django's Dream" du quartette de Claude Tissendier
"Avec Django's Dream, Claude Tissendier (Prix du meilleur disque de jazz
français 1986 et 1988, Django d'Or en 1996, Prix du Hot club de France en
2002) renoue avec Django Reinhart (CD "Django's Dream » sorti chez "Chant du
Monde" en mars 2011). Pour cela il s'est entouré du guitariste virtuose
Romain Brizemur en solo ainsi que de Luc Desroy (guitare) et André Bonnin
(contrebasse).
Claude Tissendier, ici à la clarinette et aux arrangements, rappelle
l'importance de cet instrument dans la musique de Django qui, par sa force
et son évidence, a toujours eu des fans, tant auprès du public que des
musiciens. Cette pulsation très particulière, influencée par le swing
américain mais enrobée d’une sensibilité européenne, créa un style unique
dans l’histoire du jazz. Romain Brizemur, primé à plusieurs concours, a
enregistré avec Didier Lockwood et s'est produit en première partie de
Stéphane Grappelli et de Michel Petrucciani.
La formation s'est déjà rôdée à la scène au Festival "Guitare à l'Ame"
d'Issy les Moulineaux, "Jazz o Der", Festival de Printemps du Pecq, Festival
de la ville de Sées, Festival de guitare de Ballainvilliers, à Cherbourg
"Jazz sur les quais", Festival des nuits manouches de Montrouge, Jazz
à la Baule ...
« Jazz Mag » (mai 2011) : « Avec « Django’s Dream », du titre d’un
emprunt de Reinhardt à Debussy, Claude Tissendier se penche sur la belle
année 1947, et sur ces années 40 auprès d’Hubert Rostaing, Gérard Lévêque ou
Maurice Meunier. Avec Romain Brizemur dont la musicalité s’impose désormais
sur les traces de Django, Luc Desroy et André Bonnin, Tissendier propose un
plateau d’une légitimité que les organisateurs devraient s’arracher. »
"Jazz Hot" (mars 2011) : "Un défi, pour ces quatre-là : reconstituer, à
leur manière, le deuxième Quintette du Hot Club de France, celui de Django
Reinhart sans Stéphane Grappelli au violon, mais avec le clarinettiste
Hubert Rostaing, celui des années 40 .... C'est à celui que s'est attaché le
clarinettiste Claude Tissendier ... Le pari a été pris, tenu et largement
gagné. Les maîtres d'oeuvre Claude Tissendier (cl) et Romain Brizemur (g)
ont les qualités qu'il faut, précision, lyrisme contenu, virtuosité
efficace, pour succéder sans copier à leurs illustres prédécesseurs
Reinhardt-Rostaing. Ce qui est un peu normal, car contrairement à beaucoup
d'autres clarinettistes et guitaristes très médiatisés (j'ai les noms, je
pourrais cafter), eux, ils ont du talent..." Michel Bedin
"Bulletin du HCF mai-juin 2011" :
Ce nouvel hommage à la musique de Django Reinhardt évoque l'époque où la
clarinette se substitua au violon de Stéphane Grappelli parti vers d'autres
aventures. ... comme à son habitude, Claude Tissendier se montre impeccable
à la clarinette, et ses interventions pleines de vivacité et d'élégance
sonnent joliment, aussi bien avec feeling (Crépuscule, Nuages, Sweet Chorus)
qu'avec allégresse (Douce ambiance, Minor Swing) ou éloquence (Oriental
Shuffle). De surcroît, la clarinette et la guitare se livrfent souvent à des
échanges fructueux (Djangologie, Swing 39, Minor Swing). Il convient
également de souligner que Claude propose des petits arrangements bien dans
sa manière aisée , mobile, élégante, parfois en cours d'interprétation et
souvent au début et en conclusion, par exemble dans Oriental Shuffle.
