QUIET BLUE, from trumpeter and oenologist Thibault Renard, is an acoustic Jazz album – organic, born of air, wood, and time, just like a fine vintage wine.
QUIET BLUE (out 10 october 2025) reveals itself as a profoundly nuanced, delicate, and spontaneous jazz work, recorded in a single day. Its compositions seem to have matured with the patient slowness of nature taking its time, yet they surprise with their sudden appearance, like a flower blooming without warning. This album by Thibault Renard is imbued with the very sap of a human life, that of an artist striving to stand firm against the adverse winds.
The very existence of this opus is inseparable from the contributions of David Sauzay (soprano and tenor saxophones), Daniel Gassin (piano), Mauro Gargano (bass), and Andrea Michelutti (drums). Their art of improvisation, immediate listening, and remarkable sensitivity have breathed palpable life into each track.
