With his debonair "godfather" airs, Andy Emler has quietly established his MegaOctet as one of the most essential bands in European jazz. Particularly skilled in the art of federating energies and marrying contrasts, he invents at the head of this explosive and joyfully iconoclastic mini-big band, a generous, lyrical, learned and playful music - which, without ever taking itself seriously, smuggles treasures of virtuosity.
