SERGE BLENNER
"AMOUR"
MdeC Editions / Sky Records
The new CD by Serge Blenner is especially innovative, atypical. His sonic and melodic constructions turn out to be rather astonishing indeed, as well as unpredictable enough. A multitude of elements, apparently opposed, are perfectly fused, from classical to ethnic, as well as many others, yet their individual personality can hardly be appreciated, as the most impressive results tend to dominate. The artist offers us his mastery at creating a work full of beauty and mystery, with melodies that in some occasions tend to be of a melodic romanticism, while in other instances they have an enigmatic, or even a dark air.
