"Cherish the ladies" would be the perfect description for the the fiddle-playing duet, Virginie and Charlotte. A cleverly orchestrated balance between classical influences, jazz improvisations and gypsy rythms gives us a resounding, moving, intimate, lively, almost celstial musical experience. From time to time "the guest musicians" that are a button key accordion, tablas, a double bass, and percussion add a personal touch resulting in a multicolor musical mosaic.

This album is a recording of compositions for dancing (in Auvergne) which renovates a repertoire of standards, mostly. It is intended for any ball music lover, be they a dancer or a musician. The melodies are directly inspired by the biggest references of the style, whose main center of interest is the dynamics of the diato/violin duo, sometimes in unison and sometimes in polyphony.

Directly inspired by the "bourrée" dances of Auvergne, the percussion instruments, fiddle, double bass and button key accordion create a contemporay image of traditonal music with surprisingly bold new arrangements. Polyphony at its best could be the trademark of the Leon Larchet Group. The creative interplay of fiddle and accordion, deeply rooted in traditional rhythms, bring you to your feet and before you know it, you're dancing.

Homogeneous, bewitching and intense, this music inspired by Mediterranean cultures introduces a superb and vibrant voice backed by violins, bouzouki, didgeridoo and percussion instruments. The songs are written in Chkouboulak, a curious, imaginative musical language with mysterious roots, and invite us to join them in a dreamlike fable. Antelma Duz (in chkouboulak) means something like "search together through song".

With rock drums, congos, jazzy double bass, violins and gypsy-inspired button key accordion , the Compagnie Léon Larchet presents us with a subtle plurilogue of acoustic sounds and offbeat French songs full of humour and poetry about the world of today. They depict a world both close and foreign to us, performed with a lot of sensitivity and energy.
