It’s with the piece “Doux mirage” (“Gentle mirage”) that two magicians, Vincent Segal and Nicolas Parent, reveal to us their captivating and thrilling 3rd opus. Subtle whispers flow from the magical cello and enchanting guitar.

The beauty of this new work, deep, rich and fascinating, lays in its elegant melodies : a pure delight for the ears and a celebration for the soul.

In trio with his fellow travelers, Nicolas achieves a remarkable symbiosis, in which sounds rejoice in perfect harmony.

In this perfection, the guitar breathes, the double bass sings and the joyful percussion flourish, through clever rhythmic exploration.

An authentic artist of sophisticated compositions, Nicolas Parent delights us once again with his poetry, whose pure sound hightlights a heightened minimalism.
