Keyboard player Jean-Philippe Goude took off as a composer in
a more personal way... With this new album entitled, Rock
de chambre, Goude shows himself as talented as ever with strings
(somtuous
arrangements for cellos) and winds (woodwinds being strikingly
predominant), notwithstanding a mention for the accordion, the
celesta or the viola da gamba. Yet all this without giving the
impression of piling them on the top of one another and still leaving a
place for drums (Bill Bruford and Francois
Laizeau), and the whole thing infused with the best of
interpretations.

L'avis de la
Rock de chambre, a
somptuous album, is striking in its extremely rich composition.
The arrangements are breathtaking and some forty musicians who
participated have perfectly mastered their art here, This time
Jean-Philippe
Goude has truly taken his know-how to new heights, having been able to
create a flawless link between the two major influences in his work
classical music and rock. His methods are unique and his influences
numerous. That's how baroque, rock, pop and folk, classical, American
repetitive minimalism and electro-acoustic tendancies all find a place
in his œuvre without ever contradicting or overlapping...
