About Me

Have a look on PIANO FORTE
SERGE FORTE, Jazz pianist, composer, arranger, born 1st May 1960 in Tunis.
He's inspired by Oscar Peterson, Thelonious Monk, Erroll Garner, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, Phineas Newborn, Lennie Tristano.
In 1990, SERGE FORTE recorded his first Cd VAINA latin jazz compositions, with in bonus a duo with Michel Petrucciani, followed by many concerts as 1st parts of Miles Davis in Poitiers, Stan Getz and Michel Petrucciani at Festival Heineken, etc.…
In 1992, Serge recorded the future LA VIE EN BLEU, on French Songs , and then MOSAIQUE in 1994.
In 2003 : JAZZ’IN CHOPIN. Chopin’s melodies are treated here like Jazz Standards. The result perfectly illustrate the lack of border between Classical and Jazz.
THANKS FOR ALL, with percussionist Mino Cinelu, recorded in New York in 1997, is a vibrant tribute to all the musicians who influenced him. THe cd has been released in january 2004 and is nominated by the Fnac for the Victoires du Jazz 2005.
SERGE FORTE is also very proud to be present with his trio: BELIEVE IN JAZZ with the great american jazz singer SHEILA JORDAN. This title summarizes perfectly the history of one of the greatest Jazz singers in activity.
The album La BOHEME presents a very personal vision of the inheritance of French Song, in the line of LA VIE EN BLEU with the exceptional participation of Alain Chamfort singing "Elisa" and Raphaele Atlan singing "La vie en rose" and "L'Hymne .. l'Amour".
His students enjoy today his great talent of pedagog and his help to prepare competition or professional career.
