Christian Gaubert, Andre Ceccarelli & Jannick Top - LIGNE SUD TRIO (Cristal Records ‎ 2013)

Christian Gaubert early began to be eclectic as he launched his first trio and a Jazz Big Band in Marseille (city of South of France) by using his skills as a songwriter, conductor and arranger to compose for the great names of French chanson (Charles Aznavour, Gilbert Bécaud, Mort Chuman, Croisille…) and also writing for the film industry (over 140 scores!)
As a pianist, Christian Gaubert has also collaborated with the drummer André Céccarelli and the bass guitar player Jannick Top ; he has always kept an eye on their creations and has composed special themes for this imaginary trio… He has invited Thomas Savy to take part in the album, one of his favorite studio recording musician with whom he has often worked in recognition of his talent,to join the game!
Therefor Ligne Sud (for those three French Southerners) gives us a jazz with beautiful and delicate tunes, performed by amazing musicians who share spontaneous moments of happiness. A thrill easily shared with the audience!
