About Me

Get Your Own! | View Slideshow Born in 1977, Jeremy Tordjman travelled through African lands since his childhood, passing from Morocco to Comoro Islands, immersing himself instinctively in the music and traditions of the people he was close to.He took an early hold of the instruments at his disposal in his family, and he was naturally attracted towards the guitar, later forsaking the bass guitar, his first instrument. After a few years of teaching himself and several experiments in Rock, Blues, Funk, he turns more and more towards Jazz and its derivatives, fusion, world, jazz-rock, free jazz,...He takes part in various training courses for guitar, in Cannes (Music Passion) or in Corsica (Patrimonio Festival), and he benefits from the advice of teachers such as Philippe Catherine, Robben Ford, Patrick Rondat, Sylvain Luc, Sylvestre Planchais, Jean-Marie Ecay, etc.As he felt the need of an official teaching, he studies under the authority of Gilles Renne in the CIM, the most reputed Jazz school in Paris, where he also lives and plays. There he has various encounters and Jazz experiments, especially in the club "Le Baiser Sal", where he is noticed by well-known musicians in France such as Benjamin Hnocq, Paco Sery, Linley Marthe, Herve Krief,...At the same time, his qualities as an eclectic musician are requested for arrangements, radio jingles, and various compositions. He arranges and records the two albums of the Senegalese singer Kara (Sante Yallah - Ndiyam), some pieces for the Senegalese singer Woz Kaly or Choubene Brothers Ra Band.If he still composes musical songs, in a Pop, Soul or Hip Hop R'n'B style, his meetings with African musicians and his participation in Senegalese or Guinean bands, Missal, Kara, Macir Sylla, Woz Kaly, bring him back to the rhythms he's so fond of.In that way, his band JEREMY TORDJMAN PROJECT was formed, which mixes effectively Jazz-Fusion and World Music on his own compositions, this group being the digest of his musical influences and experiments.Some talented musicians appear in his band, the saxophonists Stefano Saccon, Guillaume Perret, Ernie Odoom, who are famous in Switzerland, or Emile Parisien, who plays with Paco Sery, Remi Vignolo, Wynton Marsalis,...He also invite from italia the greatest pianist Antonello Parisi. it was really great to have this pianist, because he's so talented !Noticed by clubs and festival directors, he ensured the first part of Marcus Miller and Youssou N'Dour band concerts.His first album "Sambuka", was released in Summer 2005.BIOGRAPHIE EN FRANCAIS ************************************************************ *** Né en 1977, Jérémy Tordjman a parcouru dès lenfance les contrées africaines, passant du Maroc aux Comores, simprégnant instinctivement des musiques et des traditions des peuples quil côtoyait.

Sounds Like: Jazz, Blues, Rock, Funk and World Music, Jeremy Tordjman has dipped his guitar into all the shades of this musical palette, with pastel or bright tints, to draw and sign his own compositions. These are paintings in which bring together, in a relief landscape, inspired ballads, themes in fusion, energetic melodies, for horizon heat, audacity and enthusiasm supported by the musicians who accompany him. He does not claim to invent a new idiom, nor even to hustle anything. His objective is to move and touch. That's all. His music cultivates the contrasts, airy or percussive, colourful or mixed, exceeding the traditional frame of Jazz. An obviousness both for neophytes and music lovers.***************************************************** *********** ************************************************************ **** ************************************************************ **** Jazz, Blues, Rock, Funk et World Music, Jérémy Tordjman a trempé sa guitare dans toutes les nuances de cette palette musicale, aux tons pastels ou éclatants, pour dessiner et signer ses propres compositions. Ce sont autant de toiles où se fondent, dans un paysage en relief, ballades inspirées, thèmes en fusion, mélodies énergiques, avec pour horizon lardeur, laudace et lenthousiasme que soutiennent les musiciens qui laccompagnent. Il na pas la prétention dinventer un nouvel idiome, ni même de bousculer quoi que ce soit. Son objectif est de toucher. Tout simplement.Sa musique cultive les contrastes, aérienne ou percutante, coloré ou métissé, dépassant le cadre traditionnel du Jazz.Une évidence tant pour les néophytes que pour les mélomanes.
