Is this yet-another revisiting of Gershwin's classic Porgy and Bess? Not quite... Médéric Collignon, notoriously, is not one to follow the tracks of others. Known for his shouting, his deliberately trashy bouts and his flashes of genius, he has taken on this monument using Miles Davis's version as a starting point, with some insolence. Backing him is a power trio (named Jus de Bocse in jest) which sounds like a big band. The result is disarming, and has attracted a lot of reactions. It is a kind of artificial, multicolored opera, dense and powerful.
