Jacques PELLEN
The Man
Jacques not only is one of the best guitar player performing Breton music but also is a very talented Jazz musician, an excellent folk or Contemporary music player. All his career long, he has searched for a «Jazz estetism under Breton influences».
In his first 'Celtic Procession', he invited one of the best branch of jazzmen in Brittany such as Gildas Boclé, Éric Barret, Peter Gritz, Kenny Wheeler, Riccardo del fra and two of the legendary but also contemporary traditional musicians : The Molard brothers Jacky & Patrick. This album was a great succes and overall very well welcomed by the Jazz-loving audience in Brittany.
With his second 'Celtic Procession' (currently unavailable), recorded live on stage during the 'Tombées de la Nuit' festival held in Rennes every year, his audience gets widened as he sticked together some of the best Breton traditional musicians with former members of the first 'Celtic Procession'.
Apart from these two albums, he also took part to the Héritage des Celtes, to the 'Kerden' album, dedicated to guitar featuring 15 of the best guitar players from Brittany and he recorded a few other Jazz albums.
Special thanks to Jacques for his great concert during the 'Ar Bed Keltiek''s 20th Anniversary, held in Brest on the 5th of November.
