Bec & Ongles

“Magnificent, sparkling encounter between pianist François de Larrard and drummer Mathieu Bec.”
Alex Dutilh - OpenJazz, France Musique

“An album inhabited by its musicians is like an evidence, something that can't be explained (or only a little) but that can be heard from the first notes. That's what François de Larrard and Mathieu Bec do for us; their music captures the listener, even if it means holding him captive, and takes him with it down byways that are anything but obscure.” CultureJazz

“Clever from start to finish, Floating is a tasty cocktail of balance and freedom.” Jazz à bâbord

“Entirely dedicated to the freest improvisation, this record by François de Larrard and Mathieu Bec is a beautiful exchange made of harmony and complexity, where elegance is one of the rare conditions of the exchange.” Citizen Jazz
