Together, Courtois, Godar & Galeazzi have founded a trio that is unequalled - as to its content, music & sensitivity.

Tuba, violoncello and vocals. This sounds like experiment, like highly individual capers in the wake of the avant-garde. To Trio Rouge, however, such prejudice does not apply. For Michel Godard, Vincent Courtois and Lucilla Galeazzi devote themselves to the tradition of the Italian lied. The concept of 'canzone' is in this case too narrowly defined for the spectrum of musical ideas and heirlooms ranges from tender love songs via spontaneously improvised passages to angry Resistance verses from the First World War. The leader of the ensemble is the singer Lucilla Galeazzi. Born in Terni, she took to Italian & especially Umbrian folk music during her student days and has included it in quite different projects since. Since her first attempts as an artist in the 'Quatuor vocal' of Giovanna Marini (1977) she has consistently earned her place in the Mediterranean music scene. In 1990 she got in touch with the group of the ARFI in Lyons, and it was through this connection that she got to know the other members of the future Trio Rouge.

These musicians are all masters of their trade. The tuba player Michel Godard was noticed by the musical public in the mid-1990s when he worked in the groups of Rabih Abou-Khalil and Louis Sclavis. With his striking individual style and seemingly unlimited virtuosity, Godard has extended the technical possibilities of the tuba and also revived the serpent, a Renaissance instrument.

Vincent Courtois on the other hand, is one of the whizz-kids of the European jazz scene. His international breakthrough also came with projects of Rabih Abou-Khalil and Louis Sclavis. Since the late 1990s Vincent has been among the international elite of his cello generation.

Together, Courtois, Godar & Galeazzi have founded a trio that is unequaled - as to its content, music and sensitivity with which the musicians translate their ideas into creative sound structures with Mediterranean atmosphere.
