Michel GENTILS brought back from the United States the twelve-string guitar technique that made Leo KOTTKE famous, and from India a spirit opened to improvisation. As a perfectionist researcher, he has let his music nurture the way he would have let a good vintage ripen, which results in "Trajectoires". This album settles a dreamlike atmosphere and make us fly over ethereal landscapes coming from the fertile imagination of this excellent composer. Solo acoustic guitar fans, your attention is claimed ! Michel GENTILS is certainly one of the most French representative in the style, one of the most faithful disciples of Marcel DADI. "Live A L'Ouest De La Grosne" testifies to a noticeable live performance given the 9th of December 2000 in Jacky BARBIER's famous club in Macon. "Colère" & "Trois Thèmes" were recorded at Demarquest Studios in Paris. A feast for twelve-strings and vina guitar (A self-made Indian-inspired instrument), according to an extremely beautiful and fine record !
