Music and spoken archives "I was in Kathmandu in 1969 and I think I haven’t pulled myself together yet; I still didn’t get over it’ wrote Francois Jouffa. While he was a young reporter for the French radio station Europe n°1, he recorded every sounds during his trip with a minicassette (a new technology at that time) hidden in a small Indian shoulder bag. A record company got interested and issued a LP from this musical journey. Many years later Jimmy Page, Led Zeppelin’s ‘guitar hero’, confirmed to Francois Jouffa, for whom it was beyond belief, that his vinyl of about forty minutes had been both for him and the singer Robert Plant a bedside disc when they were composing Kashmir, great inter national success and starting point of the world pop music fashion. This 2 CD boxset (with a 44 pages booklet in both French and English) delivers a musical trip into the Celebration of the little Living Goddess, during the Festivities of Indra (CD1) and two long interviews by Francois Jouffa (CD2, in French). Exactly forty years after these recordings were made, Fremeaux & Associes are proud to present, for the first time, the complete set of captured sounds that had been preserved all along this initiatory trip out of time and out of space." Claude Colombini & Patrick Fremeaux

On Claude Bolling and Friends, the master of big band leads a small group performing classic jazz in the chamber music vein. The brilliant writing and talented musicians combine to reveal a pared down approach to the music they have been playing with excellence for over twenty-five years. Claude Bolling shows himself here to be a pianist much younger than his years would suggest, and the loving, sophisticated generosity in his playing makes this album a testament to his work as an ambassador for the vivacity that still exists in classic jazz.

"Someone somewhere said that ballads sound easy to play but the fact is that they're difficult. Something to do with the slow tempo being a potential trap for the unwary. Of course, no one on these 36 tracks falls into that one. Nor would anyone agree that just because a piece of music is at slow tempo does it become a ballad. One of the Collins music dictionary definitions is "a sentimental drawing room song" which might be near enough for a few items under consideration. Mostly, they are by jazz musicians enjoying good and familiar tunes on which they can weave attractive embellishments. Just about everything is or should be familiar and to talk about it all is not necessary. The pleasures abound: Hawkins, Berry, Freeman, Webster, Young, Bechet, Hodges - Teagarden, Holiday, Anderson, Cole, Fitzgerald, Armstrong, Sinatra - are among the best. You can't fault it at all, really. But it's not for one long listen or, even, one whole CD at a sitting". Bert WHYATT, Jazz Journal International. Includes a 16 page booklet with both French and English notes.

What do you want to do later?" You've been asked this question for years. I have another question for you: what is the verb of your life? Not the job, the verb.

It has become an educational tool used by many teachers, parents and trainers in several countries, and won the Grand Prix Clap de Diamant 2018 in the competition organized by the National Education I film the job that I like" under the direction from Costa-Gavras. Addressed to a teenager or to an elephant, to a cassette or a wash house, to fragility or to my indifference, to Snow White or �mile Zola, these letters invite us to take an uncompromising look at our time and to consider our relationships to society, to the world and to ourselves. A follower of short text and orality, Sarah Roubato has developed the letter addressed to a recipient who cannot respond, as a genre that allows her to question several social issues, with distance and acuity.

"A working-man’s son born in a small Normandy town far from the intellectual Gotha in Paris, Michel Onfray has become the greatest figure in contemporary French philosophy and the author of works which are unavoidable. Year after year, Michel Onfray has brought philosophical debate to a mass audience by transforming the major issues in today's society. This film follows Michel Onfray from day to day, allowing you to discover the thought-in-action of an honest philosopher who is both a libertarian and a humanist." Patrick FReMEAUX

With its roots in segregation, the blues echoed all the political and social events of the 20th century in the United States, and bore witness to the reactions of Afro-Americans to racism, poverty, hunger, unemployment, prison… Beginning with the Depression up to the Civil Rights struggle, Jean Buzelin and Jacques Demêtre have put together a series of themes touching on the New Deal, wars, natural catastrophes, elections and all the daily problems confronting the black community which has still not found its rightful place within American white society.
