Still in his late twenties, Herman set out his stall with the piano/drums duo album Takes 2 To Know 1 (Sketch, 2005), which was followed by a solo set, Variations (Laborie Records, 2006), and most recently a trio plus electronica album, A Time For Everything (Laborie Records, 2007). The new album, another trio outing, has the same personnel as its predecessor&mdash;Herman, bassist Matt Brewer and drummer Gerald Cleaver&mdash;but without an electronicist.<br /><br />On the evidence of Muse, Herman's time can't be long in coming, if indeed it isn't immediately around the very next corner. The influence of Jarrett and Mehldau can still be heard, but is now more diffuse. To it can be added another resonance, Esbjorn Svensson. For along with his intense, emotionally nuanced lyricism, Herman can turn out phrases and motifs as emphatic and percussive as the late pianist's. And he does so on Muse, unaided by the electronic boosters used by the Swede. There are moments on the more passionate and fiery tracks, which make up about half of the set, when it could almost be Svensson playing, unplugged. But there's a difference. Svensson's powerfully emotional performances seemed at times to be pre-scripted, turned on and off with deliberation. Herman's passion is unlike that; it feels more organic, more in-the-moment.<br /><br />In contrast to A Time For Everything, with its dollop of covers from Bj&ouml;rk, Sting, Leonard Cohen, Britney Spears and the American songbook, Muse focuses on Herman and Brewer's writing. There are just two familiar covers, Dizzy Gillespie's "Con Alma" and Bj&ouml;rk's "Isobel," plus one lesser-known tune each from songwriters Alexander Argov and Naomi Shemer. Argov's Middle East-inflected "Lamidbar" and Herman's "Vertigo," which are grouped one after the other, are among the highpoints of the album&mdash;urgent, visceral and giddifying.<br /><br />Herman includes a string quartet on three tracks to rewarding effect. At just over three minutes, the opening title track is a brief but substantial classical piece; rhapsodic and suggesting something eventful to come. The strings are assertive and foregrounded. They are less so on "Isobel," where Cleaver's "tribal" drumbeats, reiterated throughout, provide the engine. On the haunting "Rina Balle," which closes, they morph winningly between background and foreground.<br /><br />Not to be missed.<br /><br />Published: July 19, 2009]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Jazz Magazine - Holland</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Muse</category><category>Dutch</category><dc:date>2009-06-11T12:41:33+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-59</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-59</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry59-y_herman_jazz00233_2009.pdf">Y_HERMAN_jazz#3_2009</a>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Image Hifi</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Deutsch</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-06-15T12:40:35+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-58</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-58</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="Yaron_ImageHifi" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry58-yaron_imagehifi.jpg" width="289" height="1000"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>La Vanguardia</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Spanish</category><category>Concerts</category><dc:date>2008-05-12T14:12:05+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-57</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-57</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry57-vanguardia-critica-yaron-12-maig.pdf">vanguardia critica yaron 12 maig</a>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>World Sound - Mai - Juin 2009</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-05-28T11:09:38+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-56</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-56</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="yaron400" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry56-yaron400.jpg" width="400" height="546"/><br /><img class="imageStyle" alt="worldsound" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry56-worldsound.jpg" width="659" height="770"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>JazzThing</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Deutsch</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-05-26T15:54:22+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-55</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-55</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="JAZZTHING" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry55-jazzthing.jpg" width="600" height="861"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Le Monde</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-03-30T09:36:59+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-54</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-54</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="lemondeyaron" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry54-lemondeyaron.jpg" width="317" height="612"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Les Derni&#xe8;res Nouvelles du Jazz - Lionel Eskenazi</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-03-26T19:48:41+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-53</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-53</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;">Quelle classe ce Yaron Herman&nbsp;! Une standing ovation au th&eacute;&acirc;tre des Champs-Elys&eacute;es &agrave; 27 ans (c&rsquo;&eacute;tait le 09 mars dernier), alors que pratiquement personne ne le connaissait il y a quatre ans, si ce n&rsquo;est quelques habitu&eacute;s du squat de la rue de Rivoli ou du caf&eacute; La Fontaine. Un chemin parcouru &agrave; la force de ses poignets et de ses dix doigts et gr&acirc;ce &agrave; des rencontres d&eacute;terminantes, en particulier celle de Christophe Deghelt, qui le fait tourner dans le monde entier (il revenait de Chine juste avant son concert au TCE). <br /><br />Mais les rencontres les plus importantes ont &eacute;t&eacute; celles avec Matt Brewer, son contrebassiste et Gerald Cleaver, son batteur, qui ont permis, depuis maintenant deux ans, la constitution d&rsquo;un trio organique et interactif de tout premier plan. La force et la maturit&eacute; de ce trio constituent l&rsquo;atout principal de Muse, qui est d&eacute;j&agrave; son quatri&egrave;me album, et le deuxi&egrave;me en trio (l&rsquo;excellent A Time for Everything a &eacute;t&eacute; enregistr&eacute; d&eacute;but 2007 alors que le trio venait de se constituer). A la premi&egrave;re &eacute;coute de ce Muse, l&rsquo;auditeur est d&eacute;stabilis&eacute; car Yaron Herman nous fait voyager, &agrave; travers les quatre premiers morceaux, dans quatre directions diff&eacute;rentes. La musique classique, avec le titre Muse, o&ugrave; un poignant quatuor &agrave; cordes se joint aux notes solennelles et d&eacute;tach&eacute;es de Yaron Herman. Le jazz classique avec une reprise tr&egrave;s lyrique et tr&egrave;s m&eacute;lodique du Con Alma de Dizzy Gillespie. Le jazz d&rsquo;aujourd&rsquo;hui, avec ce formidable et &eacute;nergique Vertigo, qui par son originalit&eacute;, son dynamisme et sa ferveur, r&eacute;sume tr&egrave;s bien le talent de compositeur- pianiste de Yaron ainsi que celui de ses redoutables accompagnateurs. Puis le quatri&egrave;me titre qui nous propose une interpr&eacute;tation fougueuse du folklore juif avec Lamidbar.<br /><br /> Apr&egrave;s plusieurs &eacute;coutes, on comprend tr&egrave;s bien que la succession de ces quatre morceaux, tel quatre points cardinaux, r&eacute;sume la culture musicale de Yaron Herman et va nous permettre, comme s&rsquo;il s&rsquo;agissait d&rsquo;une boussole, de nous rep&eacute;rer dans le disque et de pouvoir l&rsquo;appr&eacute;hender compl&egrave;tement. Pour compl&eacute;ter ce tableau, une composition sublime b&acirc;tie sur une phrase m&eacute;lodique dissonante, d&rsquo;une beaut&eacute; magique et profonde (Perpetua). Une reprise de Bj&ouml;rk (Isobel), avec une inventive intro de batterie et le retour du quatuor &agrave; cordes dans un arrangement flamboyant. Mentionnons aussi deux compositions de Matt Brewer, dont le tr&egrave;s beau And the Rain &nbsp;et le morceau piano solo introspectif (Lu Yehi) o&ugrave; Yaron plonge avec beaucoup de sensibilit&eacute; et de retenue dans 5000 ans de culture juive.

Ainsi, Yaron Herman, au c&oelig;ur d'une interminable s&eacute;rie de concerts revient d&eacute;j&agrave; avec un nouveau disque qui succ&egrave;de au multi pl&eacute;biscit&eacute; A Time for Everything. Mais le temps va d&eacute;cid&eacute;ment tr&egrave;s vite pour le pr&eacute;coce pianiste, &agrave; peine plus d'un an apr&egrave;s un premier concert plein de fraicheur et de talent devant une salle &agrave; moiti&eacute; vide, le chroniqueur le retrouve sur les planches du grand th&eacute;&acirc;tre r&eacute;gional et sa bourgeoisie locale. Le concert sera moins long, moins bon peut-&ecirc;tre m&ecirc;me que quelques mois auparavant, mais le succ&egrave;s est de nouveau au rendez-vous. Inutile en revanche, d'attendre les musiciens au bar pour une &eacute;ventuelle poign&eacute;e de main ou une d&eacute;dicace comme auparavant. Yaron Herman est devenu grand, incontournable, on l'imagine rapidement tailler des croupi&egrave;res &agrave; Brad Mehldau et tout ce succ&egrave;s est plus qu'amplement m&eacute;rit&eacute; tant la musique de son trio respire la spontan&eacute;it&eacute;.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; ">La formation reste inchang&eacute;e : Herman, Matt Brewer et Gerald Cleaver qui reprend sa place &agrave; la batterie (alors qu'il est remplac&eacute; par l'hirsute Tobby Crane en concert), et encore plus que sur le pr&eacute;c&eacute;dent disque, les trois hommes parlent d'une seule voix. Yaron Herman a toujours tendance &agrave; pousser la chansonnette sur son piano, il respire toujours la musique, il s'engouffre en elle. L'urgence d'une fr&eacute;n&eacute;sie rythmique (&laquo; Vertigo &raquo;, et l'exceptionnel &laquo; Lamidbar &raquo;) se fait de nouveau sentir et se fraie un chemin &agrave; travers les m&eacute;lodies au piano. MCe nouvel &eacute;lan va bien au-del&agrave; de la simple confirmation d'un artiste qui aurait trouv&eacute; sa voie. Herman a trouv&eacute; ses voies, ou plut&ocirc;t, il les explore toutes en m&ecirc;me temps avec une na&iuml;vet&eacute; confondante. Dans ces moments de gr&acirc;ce, l'instabilit&eacute; g&eacute;niale des concerts ressurgit, en courant vers l'avant, les trois musiciens d&eacute;fient les lois de l'&eacute;quilibre pour ne jamais retomber. La m&eacute;lodie, le rythme, tout s'emballe ; en apn&eacute;e, ils avancent port&eacute;s juste par leur propre propos et leur inspiration qui pourrait les abandonner d'une seconde &agrave; l'autre. Et toujours, le discours tient, &eacute;volue et s'enrichit sans jamais sombrer dans la d&eacute;monstration.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; ">L'album se termine comme il commence par un voyage sur fond de cordes en velours assur&eacute; par le Quatuor Eb&egrave;ne, qui sort juste un peu du jazz, pour se noyer dans une musique plus m&eacute;ditative, &eacute;voquant un Cinematic Orchestra mobile et sensuel. Ces quelques moments diss&eacute;min&eacute;s le long du disque renforcent encore l'impression de maitrise insolente qui se d&eacute;gage de ce jeune homme. Alors, on est pr&ecirc;t &agrave; tout lui pardonner, sa c&eacute;l&eacute;brit&eacute; maintenant presque trop grande, son talent insolent pour n'avoir juste qu'&agrave; l'admirer et le voir s'envoler vers des nouveaux d&eacute;fis &agrave; sa mesure, qu'il abordera toujours, on l'esp&egrave;re, avec sa d&eacute;sarmante sympathie.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; font-weight:bold; font-weight:bold; ">Mathieu Carr&eacute; - Website Progressia</span><br /><br />]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Les Inrocks - Mars 2009</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-03-10T14:19:27+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-48</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-48</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="Inrockuptibles10mars1" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry48-inrockuptibles10mars1.jpg" width="600" height="771"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Music Story</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Muse</category><dc:date>2009-03-01T11:57:00+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-47</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-47</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:26px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; font-weight:bold; color:#B11A76;font-weight:bold; ">Muse<br /></span><p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; ">Deuxi&egrave;me volet des tr&egrave;s riches et sensibles aventures du Yaron Herman Trio, apr&egrave;s </span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; "><em>A Time For Everything</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; ">, d&eacute;j&agrave; salu&eacute; en 2006 comme un disque majeur du jazz europ&eacute;en. Le pianiste, dil y a peu de temps honor&eacute; d&rsquo;une Victoire de la Musique (r&eacute;v&eacute;lation du jazz instrumental en 2008), et th&eacute;oricien d&rsquo;une technique d&rsquo;improvisation (</span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; "><em>real time composition</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; ">) qui commence &agrave; faire &eacute;cole, a conserv&eacute; &agrave; ses c&ocirc;t&eacute;s son &eacute;quipe initiale. <br /><br />Le plaisir est donc naturel (comme cette musique, en fait) de retrouver ici le contrebassiste Matt Brewer qui, &agrave; pas trente ans, a d&eacute;j&agrave; crois&eacute; la route du pianiste de jazz cubain Gonzalo Rubalcaba, ou du saxophoniste t&eacute;nor Mark Turner, et de G&eacute;rald Cleaver &agrave; la batterie, brillant accompagnateur du chanteur am&eacute;ricain Jimmy Scott.

Il s'amuse avec son instrument, avec son trio et met la musique en liesse. Je saute de joie quand j'&eacute;coute ses disques. Depuis plusieurs ann&eacute;es, les concerts du prodige n&eacute; en 1981 &agrave; Tel-Aviv se retrouvent dans toutes les conversations.<br />Il a d&eacute;croch&eacute; la Victoire du Jazz de la r&eacute;v&eacute;lation instrumentale en 2008. Il a commenc&eacute; le piano &agrave; 16 ans, avec le professeur Opher Brayer, qui n'enseigne pas la musique avec les notes ou le solf&egrave;ge, mais avec les math&eacute;matiques appliqu&eacute;es &agrave; l'improvisation. &ldquo;</span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>Je ne sais jamais ce qui va appara&icirc;tre quand je commence &agrave; jouer. La musique prend forme au fur et &agrave; mesure. La musique du trio (avec Matt Brewer &agrave; la contrebasse et Gerald Cleaver &agrave; la batterie) a pris sa source il y a deux ans du d&eacute;sir commun de partir &agrave; l'aventure. Hier soir, dans la salle du Cheval Blanc de Schltigheim, des merveilles ont jailli de nos improvisations.&nbsp; Ce n'est pas toujours le cas.&rdquo;</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><br />En juin dernier, Michel Portal a demand&eacute; &agrave; Yaron de l'accompagner aux Fl&acirc;neries de Reims. Un concert hors du temps. Le saxophoniste et le pianiste ont g&acirc;t&eacute; de prouesses un public en extase. Une surprise? Pas totalement. Yaron explique : &ldquo;</span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>Portal ne s'attache pas davantage que moi &agrave; la partition. Il lui suffit d'&eacute;couter le th&egrave;me. On s'en &eacute;loigne, l'interaction s'enclenche. La rythmique bouillonne. Aussit&ocirc;t la musique s'intensifie</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;">&rdquo;. Yaron et Portal sont du m&ecirc;me bois. Celui qui &eacute;l&egrave;ve le niveau vers le ciel. De leurs concerts surgissent des m&eacute;lodies inattendues, qu'ils n'ont eux-m&ecirc;mes jamais jou&eacute;es, pourtant universelles et dans l'inconscient collectif. Les m&eacute;lodies atendaient d'&ecirc;tre lib&eacute;r&eacute;es de leurs t&ecirc;tes par les virtuoses.<br />Le trio de Yaron tourne comme une plan&egrave;te depuis deux ans. Leurs publics ont v&eacute;cu des soir&eacute;es inou&iuml;es. Apr&egrave;s </span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>A time for everything</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;">, salu&eacute; partout, le brelan fantastique a choisi de produire sur son propre label Laborie, un second disque, </span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>Muse</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"> (distribu&eacute; par Na&iuml;ve). Servi sur quelques titres par le quatuor Eb&egrave;ne, &eacute;coutez le trio, encore plus d&eacute;complex&eacute; et suave qu'avant, d&eacute;ployer son ouragan jubilatoire. La musique est si vivante qu'il para&icirc;t pr&eacute;somptueux de la figer par des figures de rh&eacute;torique. Aussi voici les termes sign&eacute;s de l'artiste, passionnants. Ils sont joints au communiqu&eacute; de presse. Pour une des rares fois o&ugrave;&nbsp; le&nbsp; classique communiqu&eacute; apporte davantage qu'un conglom&eacute;rat de louanges : place au Maestro de demain (et d'aujourd'hui), Yaron Herman...<br />&ldquo;</span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>La musique &eacute;tant par essence un m&eacute;lange subtil et explosif de rigueur intellectuelle (composition, improvisation, complexit&eacute;, forme), de profondeur &eacute;motionnelle (li&eacute;e &agrave; l'expression) et, dans le cas particulier de l'improvisation, j'ajouterais &eacute;galement le r&ocirc;le indispensable jou&eacute; par le geste physique qui est totalement li&eacute; aux deux &eacute;l&eacute;ments pr&eacute;c&eacute;dents car il doit s'ex&eacute;cuter dans l'instant r&eacute;el comme une concr&eacute;tisation physique d'un processus int&eacute;rieur et mental. Quand on utilise des mots pour d&eacute;crire ce processus de cr&eacute;ation, j'ai toujours l'impression qu'on arrive difficilement &agrave; exprimer les choses avec pr&eacute;cision. Comment exprimer une &eacute;motion, un son, avec des mots? Devenir po&egrave;te ? C'est certes une possibilit&eacute;. Mais la musique contient d&eacute;j&agrave; en elle-m&ecirc;me cette po&eacute;sie qui transcende les mots. C'est donc &agrave; cause des limites du langage que j'ai toujours pr&eacute;f&eacute;r&eacute; penser que la musique parlait d'elle-m&ecirc;me. Elle n'avait pas besoin de moi pour la justifier ou l'expliquer.

Matt et Gerald se connaissaient de r&eacute;putation mais n'avaient jamais jou&eacute; tous les deux. Nous sommes partis &agrave; l'aventure et nous avons &eacute;t&eacute; ravis du r&eacute;sultat, tout en nous demandant comment notre musique &eacute;voluerait apr&egrave;s des mois de tourn&eacute;es. L'ann&eacute;e qui a suivi nous a permis de mieux apprendre &agrave; nous connaitre et, au fur et &agrave; mesure des tourn&eacute;es, nous sentions que la musique prenait une autre dimension et s'intensifiait &agrave; chaque concert. Concerts qui n'&eacute;taient d'ailleurs jamais semblables. Tous les trois, nous estimons que la vraie essence du jazz n'est pas "playing it safe" mais plut&ocirc;t&nbsp; d'essayer d'aller plus loin dans la musique &agrave; chaque fois. Ceci nous a permis de trouver notre propre univers et un son de groupe de plus en plus personnel.</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><br /></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>La musique de cet album fut en majeure partie compos&eacute;e en tourn&eacute;e: dans des avions, trains, chambres d'h&ocirc;tels et quelques caf&eacute;s. Pour moi, elle est intimement li&eacute;e au voyage: en &eacute;tant sur la route notre &eacute;tat d'esprit change, on ne voit pas les m&ecirc;mes choses, ni les choses de la m&ecirc;me mani&egrave;re. On s'affranchit de l'emprise du temps sur notre quotidien, on se lib&egrave;re d'un certain poids et on se projette autrement sur ce que nous vivons.</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><br /></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>Une citation du philosophe autrichien Ludwig</em></span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"> </span><span style="font:12px Trebuchet, Verdana, serif; color:#333333;"><em>Wittgenstein sugg&egrave;re que si : "L'on consid&egrave;re l'&eacute;ternit&eacute; non pas comme du temps infini mais comme l'absence du temps, alors celui qui vit dans le pr&eacute;sent vit dans l'&eacute;ternit&eacute;". La recherche d'un improvisateur de jazz est particuli&egrave;rement paradoxale car le jazz, et plus pr&eacute;cis&eacute;ment l'improvisation, est par d&eacute;finition une musique de l'instant (compos&eacute;e et ex&eacute;cut&eacute;e en temps r&eacute;el) qui aspire &agrave; toucher l&rsquo;&eacute;ternel. Chaque moment est unique, il ne se r&eacute;p&eacute;tera jamais, ce qui demande &agrave; l'improvisateur averti un degr&eacute; de conscience aigu. L&rsquo;artiste doit trouver les graines d'&eacute;ternit&eacute; qui se cachent dans ces instants &eacute;ph&eacute;m&egrave;res. La sinc&eacute;rit&eacute; devient essentielle.&nbsp; L'improvisation peut nous permettre justement d'atteindre ces instants magiques o&ugrave; le temps dispara&icirc;t et au cours desquels nous sommes face &agrave; quelque chose qui est profond&eacute;ment li&eacute; au pr&eacute;sent mais qui appartient &eacute;galement &agrave; l'&eacute;ternel, au perp&eacute;tuel, qui a toujours &eacute;t&eacute; l&agrave; en r&eacute;alit&eacute;.
Le temps ext&eacute;rieur s'efface comme dans un voyage et il ne reste plus que la musique. Comme disait le saxophoniste Charlie Parker: "Now's the time" (C'est maintenant ou jamais).

font-weight:bold; color:#444444;font-weight:bold; ">A time for everything de Yaron Herman</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Article publi&eacute; le lundi 10 d&eacute;cembre 2007.</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;"><br /><br />"A time for Everything" , dernier enregistrement du pianiste Yaron Herman est un album qui se prend en pleine figure comme une gifle, aussi d&eacute;coiffant qu&rsquo;un vent de force sept, rehauss&eacute; du souffle chaud du sirocco m&eacute;diterran&eacute;en. Jolies images pour d&eacute;crire une seule et m&ecirc;me chose&nbsp;: la musique de cet album ne laisse personne indiff&eacute;rent.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Un piano, une basse et une batterie&nbsp;: un trio presque classique dans sa structure, sauf qu&rsquo;avec Yaron Herman, rien n&rsquo;est jamais totalement acad&eacute;mique, ni tout a fait soft. Que ce soit au niveau du tempo, du choix des morceaux, ou du passage r&eacute;gulier de pi&egrave;ces bourr&eacute;es de dynamite, &agrave; de superbes ballades, l&rsquo;album d&eacute;borde d&rsquo;une &eacute;nergie omnipr&eacute;sente, &agrave; peine temp&eacute;r&eacute;e par les soupirs et murmures inspir&eacute;s de Keith Jarrett.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Ce jeune artiste, super dou&eacute;, n&eacute; &agrave; Tel-Aviv, est arriv&eacute; au piano presque par hasard, impressionnant rapidement son professeur par sa ma&icirc;trise de l&rsquo;instrument, sa haute technicit&eacute;, et ce sens de l&rsquo;improvisation, que seuls les tout grands du jazz poss&egrave;dent naturellement.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Un envol d&rsquo;Isra&euml;l vers la Berklee School, un temps d&rsquo;attente trop long pour acc&eacute;der aux cours des ma&icirc;tres de l&rsquo;Universit&eacute;, la jeunesse, le froid et la nostalgie du pays inciteront Yaron &agrave; regagner sa terre natale. Mais une &eacute;tape technique de son avion, un peu prolong&eacute;e &agrave; Paris, un regard f&eacute;minin, la d&eacute;couverte de la sc&egrave;ne jazz de la ville Lumi&egrave;re, transformeront une visite d&rsquo;une semaine, en un s&eacute;jour de quatre ans. Le temps n&eacute;cessaire pour apprendre, assimiler, se mesurer aux autres artistes avant de s&rsquo;embarquer dans une carri&egrave;re solo et internationale.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">"A Time for Everything&rdquo; est un superbe album, vari&eacute; et riche de d&eacute;couvertes techniques et jazzistiques, un album digne des grands improvisateurs que peuvent &ecirc;tre Jacky Terrasson et E.S.T.. Mais l&agrave; s&rsquo;arr&ecirc;te la comparaison, car Yaron Herman poss&egrave;de une personnalit&eacute; artistique propre, une richesse humaine et un jeu charismatique qui &eacute;vite &eacute;videmment tous racolages.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Un enregistrement d&eacute;lirant, &agrave; &eacute;couter tr&egrave;s tr&egrave;s fort, afin de vibrer simultan&eacute;ment avec les cordes du piano, ou de mieux ressentir encore les performances du bassiste et du batteur, autres pi&egrave;ces ma&icirc;tresses du trio.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">Que ce soit dans des reprises de L&eacute;onard Cohen, de Sting, de Bj&ouml;rk, ou dans ses superbes compostions personnelles, Yaron Herman et "A Time for everything" ne vous lasseront jamais, et ce, de la premi&egrave;re &agrave; la centi&egrave;me &eacute;coute.</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#444444;">La classe des grands tout simplement.</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif;

color:#000000;">Un nouveau papier &eacute;logieux apr&egrave;s un concert de Yaron, en Belgique au Flagey...<br /><br /></span><span style="font:11px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;">Ecrit par Cecil Ameil le 17-02-2007</span><span style="font:10px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;"><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;"><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; font-weight:bold; color:#000000;font-weight:bold; ">Flagey, 14 d&eacute;cembre 2006<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;"><br />On ne le connaissait pas, on n&rsquo;en avait jamais entendu parler&nbsp;; pourtant il a d&eacute;j&agrave; fait grand bruit dans les milieux Jazz de Paris. Un jeune pianiste de la g&eacute;n&eacute;ration de Baptiste Trotignon et Jacky Terrasson qui vient se produire seul sur la sc&egrave;ne bruxelloise et pour la premi&egrave;re fois, sans la m&ecirc;me aura m&eacute;diatique mais pr&eacute;c&eacute;d&eacute; de critiques enthousiastes, cela &eacute;tait d&eacute;j&agrave; un objet de curiosit&eacute;.<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;"><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;">Le jeune homme &agrave; la d&eacute;marche souple qui vient s&rsquo;assoir directement au piano sans piper mot, entre tout entier dans la musique et nous entra&icirc;ne dans son sillage s&rsquo;appelle Yaron Herman, il est Isra&eacute;lien, il a 25 ans. Les auditeurs qui l&rsquo;entendaient pour la premi&egrave;re fois ce jeudi de d&eacute;cembre 2006 ont v&eacute;cu une exp&eacute;rience assez extraordinaire pendant 75 minutes de lyrisme d&eacute;bordant, dans une immersion quasi-totale.<br />Comme d&rsquo;autres pianistes de jazz, Yaron joue sans amplification, son jeu est ainsi d&eacute;pourvu de l&rsquo;artifice &eacute;lectronique surdimensionn&eacute; d&eacute;cid&eacute;ment p&eacute;nible que nous imposent nombre de duos et trios de jazz qui se produisent en salle. Le Studio 1 du Flagey se pr&ecirc;te tellement bien &agrave; cette intimit&eacute; naturelle, la salle est petite, le son r&eacute;verb&egrave;re d&eacute;j&agrave; beaucoup &ndash; presque trop (le bois est omnipr&eacute;sent).<br />A l&rsquo;&eacute;coute des harmoniques d&rsquo;un piano d&eacute;pouill&eacute; de ces oripeaux et, surtout, en d&eacute;couvrant la concentration tr&egrave;s expressive (quelles mimiques&nbsp;!) d&rsquo;un musicien qui ne cherche pas &agrave; s&eacute;duire le public mais utilise manifestement la sc&egrave;ne comme le th&eacute;&acirc;tre de ses frasques musicales, il nous est venu &agrave; l&rsquo;esprit qu&rsquo;un trio avec contrebasse et percussion trouverait &eacute;galement son compte &agrave; nous proposer une formule acoustique que l&rsquo;on n&rsquo;entent que trop rarement, parfois aux Jazz Marathon du Printemps. Malgr&eacute; les &eacute;carts dynamiques des trois instruments, une disposition idoine qui ne soit pas inutilement tourn&eacute;e vers le public mais concentr&eacute;e sur elle-m&ecirc;me permettrait d&rsquo;&eacute;tablir un bel &eacute;quilibre sonore sans sombrer dans la soupe &eacute;lectronique habituelle&nbsp;: sous les doigts de Yaron Herman, on a ainsi pu imaginer le piano en trait d&rsquo;union d&rsquo;une contrebasse plac&eacute;e en avant-sc&egrave;ne et de percussions sises en arri&egrave;re, les musiciens tourn&eacute;s sur eux-m&ecirc;mes et engag&eacute;s dans un dialogue approfondi.<br />Yaron Herman nous &eacute;voquait tout cela, tant son approche m&ecirc;le pulsation rythmique et legato chantant, sans pourtant sacrifier &agrave; la lisibilit&eacute; sonore de l&rsquo;ensemble. Les couleurs de son piano sont multiples et le plaisir des oreilles total.<br />Aux standards de Thelonious Monk, de &lsquo;Summertime&rsquo; et &lsquo;Moon River&rsquo; mais &eacute;galement dans le sillage de Gabriel Faur&eacute; et Sting, il a ajout&eacute; des crus de son chai. On a imm&eacute;diatement &eacute;t&eacute; s&eacute;duit par un discours puissant et tr&egrave;s musical, introduit d&rsquo;accords parfois saisissants (dans Moon River, magnifique), empli d&rsquo;une mati&egrave;re sonore conduite par une ligne m&eacute;lodique tr&egrave;s expressive (dans Monk, par exemple) et constitu&eacute; d&rsquo;effets sonores multiples qui ne sombrent jamais dans une r&eacute;p&eacute;tition st&eacute;rile. Le plus spectaculaire, il faut le conc&eacute;der, fut d&rsquo;assister &agrave; l&rsquo;ivresse du pianiste qui le conduit &agrave; jouer debout pour donner plus de pr&eacute;sence &agrave; son jeu, &agrave; sauter devant son clavier par souci d&rsquo;expressivit&eacute; corporelle, ou encore &agrave; passer du temps &agrave; taper dans l&rsquo;&acirc;me de l&rsquo;instrument pour produire des phrases enti&egrave;res &agrave; la John Cage, et pas seulement pour des effets sonores en forme de gadget.<br />En d&eacute;finitive, Yaron Herman fait montre d&rsquo;une &eacute;nergie stup&eacute;fiante qui s&rsquo;appuie manifestement sur une concentration tr&egrave;s intense, le son jaillissant du fond d&rsquo;une extr&ecirc;me int&eacute;riorit&eacute; &ndash; presque comme une transe&nbsp;; ce qui nous fait dire qu&rsquo;il sait tr&egrave;s bien o&ugrave; il va, m&ecirc;me dans l&rsquo;improvisation. Il vous invite dans un monde surgi d&rsquo;une inspiration musicale sans rel&acirc;che et vous livre alors des confidences d&eacute;brid&eacute;es, mais sans impudeur&nbsp;; tr&egrave;s simplement, naturel. On en sort boulevers&eacute;.</span>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Le boudoir de Proust</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><dc:subject>Media</dc:subject><dc:date>2006-10-01T13:42:40+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-13</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-13</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:7px &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, LucidaGrande, Verdana, sans-serif; ">Citizen jazz Publi&eacute; le : lundi 4 septembre 2006</span><span style="font:11px &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, LucidaGrande, Verdana, sans-serif; "><br /><br /></span><p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font:11px &#39;Lucida Grande&#39;, LucidaGrande, Verdana, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; font-weight:bold; ">Venu au piano vers seize ans seulement, Yaron Herman a mis les bouch&eacute;es doubles pour rattraper le temps perdu&nbsp;: apr&egrave;s un bref crochet par Boston, le jeune pianiste se fixe &agrave; Paris o&ugrave; il accumule les distinctions, donne des conf&eacute;rences &agrave; la Sorbonne et enregistre son premier disque, Takes 2 To Know 1 pour Sketch.

For pianist Yaron Herman, five minutes of playing were enough. Four months ago he was a guest in the final section of a performance by saxophonist Albert Beger and Italian drummer Roberto Dani, at the Jazz Festival in the Tel Aviv Cinematheque. Beger and Dani are very dominant musicians, but the moment that Herman began playing, their presence onstage was almost forgotten. The young pianist changed the nature of the music entirely, and the dissonant and choppy sounds that had filled the stage during the hour before his appearance melted into a harmonic and flowing musical drama. Beger and Dani looked somewhat shocked: At first they tried to blend in, but they gave up very quickly. 

Nobody in the audience seemed to remain indifferent to Herman. Some were enthusiastic about his playing, but there were others who had reservations about what they saw as his "hostile takeover" of the performance. 

"That wasn't arrogance, that was lack of fear," explains Herman in a telephone interview from Paris, where he has been living for the past four years. "When I play I'm not afraid of anything, and at that moment I thought that the right thing to do was to interrupt the flow of the performance, to turn it into something else. It didn't work they way I thought it would. The other musicians didn't cooperate. In effect, the lack of coordination was so great, that it was wonderful. But let's stop discussing that performance, it's such a marginal detail. I'm amazed that they're making such a big deal of it."

The appearances in China were a continuation of a performance he gave at the classical music festival in Toulouse, which every year invites a jazz pianist to participate. Two years ago it was Chick Corea, last year Brad Mehldau - and this year it was Herman, which indicates the great respect that France has for the 24-year-old Israeli pianist. 

"The visit to Beijing was fascinating," Herman relates. "In China there is no tradition of jazz, and the audience there does not have knowledge like that of people in the West. The people who attended my concert were like children who discover something new: attentive, warm and curious. There was amazing energy there, and after the performance they invited me to come back next year and to perform in another six cities in China, including Shanghai and Hong Kong."

Yaron Herman began to play only eight years ago, when he was 16. Until then his world was mainly basketball: He was a player on the cadets' team in star Tal Burstein's first line-up. "And then, fortunately, I was injured," he says. "I couldn't continue with basketball, and I began to think about what I wanted to do with my life." 

He decided to study piano and in his searches for a teacher ended with Ofer Breyer, who has taught some of the outstanding musicians among the younger generation of Israeli jazz players (for example, pianist Anat Fort) and is known for his unconventional methods. The first meeting was somewhat traumatic, recalls Hermon. 

"He asked me to play something for him, I fooled around with some notes, and he simply sat there and remained silent. After two minutes of silence he asked, 'Do you have any brothers?' I didn't understand what he wanted from me. 'Yes, three,' I said. Another moment of silence passed, and then he asked: 'Do you beat them up?' I think that he was trying to create a provocation in order to find some sort of sensitivity." 

During the following lessons the piano remained closed. "All we did was talk," says Herman, "and all the time, in the background, I heard very soft and hypnotic music. In the end I asked him what it was, he said it was 'The Koln Concert' by Keith Jarrett, and then we started to work. As opposed to most teachers, Ofer didn't teach me scales or sight reading. His method focuses on maximizing one's personal potential. He claims that in order to be a good musician you have to have three things, which he calls IQ, EQ and 'OQ' - intelligence, emotion and an obsession for music." 

Breyer recommended that Herman become familiar with Eastern philosophies, spoke to him about mathematical models relating to music, "and mainly taught me how to work on myself, to get rid of all kinds of fears," says Herman. He played eight hours a day, trying to internalize the styles of the great jazz pianists, and also read books about Zen. "I was a kind of sponge," he says. 

Wasn't it too much for a 17 year-old? "Not at all. We live in a culture that sanctifies only knowledge, but knowledge is only one variable in the equation. The second variable, the really important one, is experience. The more you increase it, the more room there is for knowledge. It's like water and a glass. The larger the glass, the more room there is for water." 

Herman began to perform in cafes and clubs, played with classmates from the Alon School in Ramat Hasharon, and after graduating decided to go to the United States. He arrived in Boston and deliberated between the Berkley School of Music and the New England Conservatory of Music. "But it didn't feel right to me," he says, "maybe because I don't manage in a student milieu. I always feel very lonely." 

</span></td></tr><tr height="0"><span style="font-size:11px; font-weight:bold; ">A fateful night</span></td></tr><tr height="0"><span style="font-size:11px; ">

He decided to return to Israel. The charter flight included a stop in Paris, and due to a snowstorm, Herman was forced to spend the night in the city. "I thought, if this mishap has already occurred, let's go and play at some jam session. What do I have to lose? I'm not a big fan of jam sessions, but tomorrow I'm leaving, who cares about me? I found a club, I went onstage, I think I played 'Whisper Not' [a standard of saxophonist Benny Golson - B.S.] and people around me got excited. Two musicians came up to me, asked who I was and said they had performances and their pianist was out of town. 'If you stay,' they said, 'we'll pay your ticket to Israel. We'll take care of everything.' I was supposed to stay in Paris for a week, and I've been here now for four years." 

He started to perform in a rather unusual place - an empty apartment that had been taken over by young squatters. "I performed there every week, solo, and people started to come. A rumor began in the city that a crazy pianist was playing in the basement," he says. 

During the years that Herman has been living in Paris he has performed in Israel several times. His most memorable performance was a concert three years ago, in which he did free interpretations of some of the standard old favorites of Israeli music. 

"The performances at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art were an amazing experience, with a great deal of emotion," says Nitzan Kremer, the musical director of that concert series. The widow of Israeli composer Sasha Argov was in the audience, and when Yaron and his partners played 'Zemer ahava layam' ["Love Song to the Sea"], she began to cry." 

One of Herman's partners in the concert was saxophonist Raphael Imbert, who together with him today is now running the Newtopia ensemble, which will be arriving next week for five performances in Israel as part of the Hot Jazz program. The first performance will be next Tuesday (June 20) at the Camelot Club in Herzliya, and it will be followed on Wednesday at the Gerard Bechar Center in Jerusalem on Thursday, and Friday at the Tel Aviv Museum, and on Saturday at the Abba Hushi House in Haifa. 

Newtopia was born of an encounter between Herman and Imbert, "which occurred at one of the innumerable jazz festivals that take place in France," says Herman. "The click was immediate. We understood at once that we share the same values." 

What are those values? "The understanding that music is not only notes, certainly not only technique. Music is supposed to convey a state of being, which you can achieve if you as an artist work on yourself. That is what gets people excited by music. John Coltrane is the best example: He looked for the situation in which he was connected to some process that was located deep inside him. In other words, and I know that this will sound like a cliche - both Raphael and I think that music touches on something sacred." 

Imbert told Herman that in Marseille, where he lives, he had a group of outstanding students, who would be interested in playing with the ensemble that the two wanted to start. "I thought to myself, 'Students - how good could they be?' But when I heard them, I received the shock of my life," says Herman. 

That's how the Newtopia group was created. It was afterward joined by the excellent South African saxophonist and singer Zim Ngqawana, who will also be arriving for the upcoming performances in Israel. 

The main part of the performances here will be devoted to the work "La Suite Elegiaque" (Elegiac Suite), which was written by Imbert in the wake of his mother's death from cancer. "It lasts for about an hour, has four parts, and deals with mourning and with emerging from mourning," Herman explains. The rest of the concert will be devoted to performances of great Israel songs (apparently including the song "Halikha lekesariya" ("Walking to Caesarea," by Hannah Szenes, more commonly known as "Eli, Eli"), in the spirit of a concert of three years ago. 

Herman: "These are songs that are part of me, that remind me of home, and I have come to realize that people in France and in Europe are moved by them. That doesn't surprise me. These songs have a very song emotional core. This is very sensitive music, which has a great deal of history - music that tells the story of a nation. You don't have to know the story in order to be moved by it.<br /></span></td></tr></table>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>JazzMan Juin 2006</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-05-30T17:46:10+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-8</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-8</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="Yaron Herman - Jazzman - juin 06" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry8_1.jpg" width="391" height="605"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>T&#xe9;l&#xe9;rama - Sortir 17 Mai 2006</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-05-23T17:31:27+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-7</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-7</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="herman" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry7_1.jpg" width="454" height="734"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Piano Magazine - Mai 2006</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-05-02T12:53:59+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-6</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-6</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="Pianiste - Mai_juin 2006 - Critique Y.Herman" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry6_1.jpg" width="330" height="181"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Jazzman - Mai 2006</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-04-06T11:07:33+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-5</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-5</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="yaronjazzman" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry5_1.gif" width="200" height="1500"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Concert in Scharfrichterhaus - Passau</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>German</category><dc:date>2006-04-04T11:30:26+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-4</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-4</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; ">vom 03.04.2006<br /></span><span style="font:17px Verdana, serif; font-weight:bold; color:#333333;font-weight:bold; ">Rhythmische &Uuml;berraschungen </span><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; "><br /></span><span style="font:12px Verdana, serif; font-weight:bold; font-weight:bold; ">Pianist Yaron Hermann gastiert im Passauer Scharfrichterhaus: Alles entwickelt sich w&auml;hrend des Spiels</span><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; "> <br /><br /></span><img class="imageStyle" alt="no" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry4_1.gif" width="1" height="1"/><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; "><br /></span><img class="imageStyle" alt="CreateImage2.php" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry4_2.png" width="400" height="226"/><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; "><br /></span><table border="0.000000" cellpadding="0.000000" cellspacing="0.000000"><tr height="0"><td valign="middle" width="0" colspan="4" bgcolor="#E7E7E7"><p style="text-align:right;"><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; ">&nbsp;<br /></span><td valign="middle" width="0" colspan="4" bgcolor="#E7E7E7"></p><p style="text-align:left;"><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; ">L&auml;sst die Zuh&ouml;rer am Innersten der Kl&auml;nge teilhaben: Yaron Hermann aus Israel. </span><span style="font:10px Verdana-Italic; "><em>(Foto:&nbsp;Warmuth)</em></span><span style="font:10px Verdana, serif; "><br /></span></table><br /><span style="font:11px Verdana, serif; ">Nach Enrico Pieranunzi, der im November letzten Jahres stark beeindrucken konnte, gastierte nun mit Yaron Hermann wieder ein Solo-Pianist der ganz exklusiven Art im Passauer Scharfrichterhaus. Denn der erst 24-j&auml;hrige geb&uuml;rtige Israeli, der seit vier Jahren Paris zu seiner Wahlheimat auserkoren hat, bestach vor vollem Haus durch seine ganz eigene und pers&ouml;nliche Art, die verschiedensten Stile und Musikepochen miteinander zu verkn&uuml;pfen. Bei Hermann wirkt selbst die Verbindung der st&auml;rksten stilistischen Gegens&auml;tze harmonisch und bildet ein gesamtes Ganzes. Nichts wirkt aufgesetzt, nichts gek&uuml;nstelt. Alles entwickelt sich w&auml;hrend des Spiels und das ist sein Erfolgsrezept. Wenn er beispielsweise seine Improvisationen mit neoimpressionistischen Kl&auml;ngen beginnt, die Debussy ins Ged&auml;chtnis rufen, dann w&auml;hrend des Aufbaus des Spannungsbogens raffiniert synkopierte Komplement&auml;rrhythmen entwickelt, auch vor wohlklingenden Terz- und Sextparallelen nicht zur&uuml;ckschreckt und schlie&szlig;lich in neoromantischen Figurationen wieder zur Ruhe mahnt, &uuml;ber die er mit der rechten hand auch mal die Melodie von Gershwins &bdquo;Summertime&ldquo; legt, dann birgt das zweifelsohne den Reiz des Au&szlig;ergew&ouml;hnlichen. Durch solche Verbindungen verfremdet Hermann bekannte Melodien harmonisch reizvoll und l&auml;sst sie sozusagen in einem ganz anderen, oft v&ouml;llig neuen Licht erbl&uuml;hen. Selbst ein wundersch&ouml;n romantisch intoniertes &bdquo;Moon River&ldquo; ist bei Hermann nicht vor kleinen harmonischen und rhythmischen &Uuml;berraschungen gesch&uuml;tzt und gerade das macht sein Spiel so spannend. Zudem weist Hermann die F&auml;higkeit auf, den T&ouml;nen in sehr innigen Passagen wirklich Raum zur Entfaltung zu geben, und damit die Zuh&ouml;rer sozusagen am Innersten der Kl&auml;nge teilhaben zu lassen. Faszinierend ist aber auch, mit welcher Leidenschaft der Pianist sein Spiel grimassenschneidend durchlebt. Das Publikum war zurecht begeistert und gab sich erst nach zwei Zugaben zufrieden.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><span style="font:11px Verdana-Italic; "><em>Stefan Rimek</em></span></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Jazz Magazine - Chronique de Variations</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-03-30T18:11:53+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-3</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-3</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="YH, Jazzmag005" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry3_1.jpg" width="458" height="829"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Communiqu&#xe9; de Presse / La Borie</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-02-15T11:45:54+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-2</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-2</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry2_1.pdf">communique de presse label LABORIE[4]</a>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Variations Press Info</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2006-02-20T11:19:36+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-1</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-1</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="Image 2" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry1_1.png" width="393" height="558"/>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Piano aux Jacobins</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2005-09-30T23:02:17+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-0</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-0</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:12px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; color:#60140C;font-weight:bold; ">Piano aux Jacobins - lundi 19 septembre<br />Dans Foutraque.com / Dr Bou</span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#333333;"><br /><br /></span><img class="imageStyle" alt="1984_img2" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry0_1.jpg" width="250" height="188"/><span style="font:16px Times-Roman; "><br /></span><img class="imageStyle" alt="spacer" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry0_2.gif" width="1" height="1"/><span style="font:16px Times-Roman; "><br /></span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#333333;">Mon premier grand choc en jazz fut l&rsquo;&eacute;coute de</span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#333333;"><em> La Scala</em></span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#333333;"> de </span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:bold; color:#333333;font-weight:bold; ">Keith Jarrett</span><span style="font:11px Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color:#333333;">.

Phras&eacute;s limpides, improvisation &agrave; fleur de peau, Yaron a fait vibrer son piano comme aucun autre, en combinant parties rythmiques et &eacute;lans sporadiques. Spectacle autant auditif que visuel, le pianiste n&rsquo;a cess&eacute; durant le concert de bouger, g&eacute;mir ou faire des grimaces. Une externalisation de sa sensibilit&eacute;, jamais autiste, mais bel et bien tourn&eacute;e vers son public. Frissons, plaisirs, douceurs, volupt&eacute;s, tout y passa durant deux heures. Des morceaux plus blues voire ragtime, aux compositions free jazz. De standards mondialement connus aux compositions personnelles improvis&eacute;es. Vous d&eacute;crire un tel concert avec de simples phrases rel&egrave;ve de l&rsquo;impossible tant sa musique, son art, vont au-del&agrave; des simples mots.

Projet&eacute;es sur un &eacute;cran g&eacute;ant plac&eacute; au-dessus du piano, les images de l&rsquo;artiste n&rsquo;apport&egrave;rent aucun suppl&eacute;ment au concert et parasit&egrave;rent quelque peu la musique.

Not because pianist Yaron Herman played a bad concert but because it was beautiful. For a few more minutes the audience could remain in Herman's seductive, transparent world of music, before the applause and cheering brought back daily reality. It was almost a shame to break this moment of silence that should have lasted an eternity. The few people that came to listen to the solo concert of this relatively unknown pianist will be able to say later that they was actually there: at Herman's Dutch debut. It won't take long before his concerts will be sold out. From the moment on where Mehldau will become a little boring, Jarret won't be heard at all over here and other American colleagues will become too smooth, there will be this 25 year old Parisian, born in Tel Aviv and dropout of the famous Berklee School of Music. <br /><br />Jarret is a great inspiration for Herman (including pulling faces, humming along and standing up while performing) but he has his own sound. His timing is relaxed, sometimes hanging in there heavily. He incorporates classical technique in his playing but this seems to come more from modern work, with more weight, than from the 19th century that is so beloved by jazz pianists. The unraveling of known jazz standards and pop classics has been done by musicians since years now, but it never sounded so exciting and compelling as with Herman. Searching and improvising he creates orchestrations filled with powerful images and a subtle sense of humor. He would let the grand piano roar, buzz and flash without showing off on purpose. The carefully focused energy is a parallel with the best pop music of this moment. <br /><br />Yaron Herman is truly contemporary.<br /><br />KOEN SCHOUTEN</span>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Yaron Herman dans TGV Magazine</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><dc:subject>Media</dc:subject><dc:date>2007-09-01T13:59:48+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-18</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-18</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="tgvmagazine" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry18_1.jpg" width="300" height="714"/><br /><br /><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif;

For Israeli-born pianist Yaron Herman it&rsquo;s a close call, but A Time for Everything is such a refreshing and multifaceted album that a little background is necessary. Herman, still in his mid-twenties, began playing piano at sixteen, a shift in focus resulting from an unexpected basketball accident that put an end to his sporting aspirations. The sports world&rsquo;s loss became the music world&rsquo;s gain when, after only two years of an unorthodox multi-disciplinary teaching method, Herman left to study at the Berklee College of Music. Dissatisfied, Herman left after two months, with a return trip stop-over in Paris turning into an extended stay as Herman quickly established himself as the up-and-coming pianist on the Parisian jazz scene.<br /><br />A Time for Everything is Herman&rsquo;s third release as a leader and his first in a trio setting, but he already possesses not just a mature voice, but one that marries a firm grasp of the tradition (his effortlessly swinging &ldquo;Stompin,&rdquo; with its touch of stride, and the equally swinging blues, &ldquo;Monkey in Paradise&rdquo;) with a youthful mindset that will<br />appeal to both traditionalists and those with a more modernistic bent. Any album with a song list ranging from Scriabine to Sting, Leonard Cohen to Bj&ouml;rk, and the Great American Songbook to&mdash;yes, you read that right&mdash; Britney Spears, is an album that is, at the very least, worth some attention.<br /><br />That Herman&mdash;alongside bassist Matt Brewer and ubiquitous drummer Gerald Cleaver&mdash;can find merit in Spears&rsquo; simple pop confection (&ldquo;Toxic&rdquo;) only means that he hears potential in just about anything. But unlike other bands that deconstruct popular contemporary songs, there&rsquo;s no sign of shtick or artifice to be found.<br /><br />&ldquo;Message in a Bottle&rdquo; begins with the sound of someone searching through a radio dial and ultimately finding a fiery intro that only gradually reveals the familiar arpeggios that define this staple from The Police. Cleaver grooves more definitively than The Police&rsquo;s Stewart Copeland ever did, while Herman marries reverence with liberal reharmonization.<br /><br />Herman is undeniably informed by many of the usual suspects, ranging from Jarrett to Mehldau. But his ability to run the gamut from assertive and edgy playing on Bj&ouml;rk&rsquo;s &ldquo;Army of Me,&rdquo; to European neoclassicism on the<br />fiery rubato original, &ldquo;MMM,&rdquo; spare, dark-hued elegance on &ldquo;Nishima&rdquo; and an understated solo look at Leonard Cohen&rsquo;s enduring &ldquo;Hallelujah&rdquo;&mdash;leading to a sublime coda where Herman&rsquo;s playing is enhanced by his trio&rsquo;s subtle colorations&mdash;demonstrates a player whose distinctive voice is already well-formed.<br /><br />Occasional sound designs by Jean Pierre Ta&iuml;eb broaden the textural scope without intruding on the trio&rsquo;s clear simpatico. From a dramatic yet poignant take on &ldquo;In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning&rdquo; to &ldquo;Layla Layla,&rdquo; which references Herman&rsquo;s cultural roots, A Time for Everything is a success from start to finish. <br /><br />Reinforcing Herman&rsquo;s reputation, and deserving to further raise the profile of this rapidly emerging and remarkable talent,<br />everything is, indeed, possible.<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; ">T&eacute;l&eacute;chargez cet article dans la section</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><a href="../(null)/(null)" rel="external" title="Download"> Download-Dossier de Presse 2007</a></span>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Yaron Herman - Choc Jazzman de l&#x27;ann&#xe9;e &#x21;</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2007-12-09T15:14:54+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-28</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-28</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><br /><br /></p><p><img class="imageStyle" alt="CHOCS2007b" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry28-yaron_herman_chocj.jpg" width="400" height="516"/><br /><br /><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; ">T&eacute;l&eacute;chargez cet article dans la section</span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><a href="../(null)/(null)" rel="external" title="Download"> Download-Dossier de Presse 2007</a></span></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Album of the week on the Jazz.co.uk</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>English</category><dc:date>2007-11-17T11:37:49+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-30</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-30</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:11px Georgia, serif; font-weight:bold; color:#000000;font-weight:bold; ">Yaron Herman &ndash; A Time For Everything&nbsp;</span><span style="font:11px Georgia, serif; color:#000000;">(Nov 16) - Mike Chadwick<br />Israeli-born Herman began playing piano only at the age of 16, using a revolutionary technique. Now ten years later he is on to his second solo album with A Time for Everything using a trio format, his music has brought comparisons to artists as varied as E.S.T., Bjork and Jeff Buckley.<br /><br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><u><a href="http://www.the-jazz.co.uk/article.asp?id=427219" rel="self">http://www.the-jazz.co.uk/article.asp?id=427219</a></u></span>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Yaron Herman in The Guardian &#x21;</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>English</category><dc:date>2007-11-30T11:43:02+01:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-31</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-31</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; ">John L Walters<br />Friday November 30, 2007<br /></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; color:#0000EE;"><u><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/">The Guardian</a></u></span><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "> <br /><br />This album is almost a masterclass in the contemporary trio. In one package, pianist Herman crams powerful originals, straight-ahead swingers, sensitive balladry, Monk pastiche, electronics, a standard, ingenious pop covers and a prayer-like solo cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, throwing in a bit of free improv and Scriabin along the way. Herman shows a gift for deconstructing recent hits for Bj&ouml;rk and Britney. Both Army of Me and Toxic have rhythmic twists that suit Herman's propulsive style, and a harmonic simplicity that is echoed in originals such as Paluszki. His reinvention of the Police's Message in a Bottle works less well. The trio is completed by Matt Brewer (bass) and Gerald Cleveland (drums), featured to great effect on a brief jazz headbanger called El Toro and on the album's "secret" track. But is there A Time for Everything? The pick and mix aspect means that we never learn where Herman's heart lies</span>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Yaron Herman sur France Info</title><dc:creator>info@deghelt-productions.com</dc:creator><category>Fran&#xe7;ais</category><dc:date>2007-10-21T11:53:51+02:00</dc:date><link>http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-32</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://yaron-herman.com/media/yaronhermanmedia.html#unique-entry-id-32</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img class="imageStyle" alt="franceinfosyaronherman" src="http://yaron-herman.com/media/files/page4_blog_entry32_1.jpeg" width="115" height="116"/><br /><span style="font:12px Georgia, serif; "><a href="http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#<br />http://www.franceinfo.fr/spip.php?article26364&theme=36&sous_theme=38#" rel="self">Ecoutez la Chronique d'Anne Ch&eacute;peau</a></span>]]></content:encoded></item></channel>
