Belle Affaire - Huit Heures Du Matin

Influenced by the course of his biography and his various interests regarding sound, Pirmin Setz has charted a unique musical path: these are journalist Pirmin Bossart's words about the Lucerne-based drummer, percussionist, composer, lyricist and singer.

The album huit heures du matin contains nine compositions written for accordion, double bass, clarinet, saxophone, drums and percussion. All are sung in French. The quartet belle affaire plays finely woven acoustic music with chansonesque poetry and world folk influences.

The band uses all these assets to take the listeners into another world, a musical universe that one rarely hears and experiences in such a peculiar way.
