A prominent activist on the French new music scene, the saxophonist Sylvain Rifflet has a musical culture that goes far beyond jazz, taking in experimental rock and contemporary music of all sorts. In this daring multimedia project, conceived in collaboration with fellow saxophonist Jon Irabagon, Rifflet has breathed new life into the art and spirit of Moondog, the iconic blind American composer and revered pioneer on the jazz avant-garde/minimalist scene who rubbed shoulders with the great and the good, inspiring the likes of Charlie Parker, Allen Ginsberg and Philip Glass. This subtle reworking, a blueprint for creative reinvention, is available here in both audio and video versions.
“We want to re-construct Moondog’s music it the way jazz musicians re-invent standards, and decided to adapt the music for the two of us, Jon playing mostly alto saxophone, me clarinet and tenor saxophone, plus members of my band Alphabet.“ (Sylvain Rifflet)
“Perpetual Motion” is Sylvain and Jon’s first common project, even though they have known each other for almost twenty years now (from the time when they played in an all-star college band of one of the major amusement parks of the US).
Developing separated brilliant careers in France and US, they have kept in touch, sharing musical thoughts and thinking of a way to work together one day.
Discovering they were both sharing a very special interest in Moondog’s work, they have decided to pursue a project inspired by his remarkable musical output, with its jazz, folk and street sound influences, across musical genres.
