Colin Vallon, Vincent Courtois "A Simple Fall"
Switzerland, France
Vincent Courtois - cello
Colin Vallon - piano
With A Simple Fall, two of the most distinctive voices in European improvised music come together: French cellist Vincent Courtois and Swiss pianist Colin Vallon. Across twelve pieces unfolds a music of rare intimacy and emotional clarity – an encounter within the tension between contemporary minimalism, lyrical depth, and quiet intensity.
The recordings for A Simple Fall were made during a time of profound personal loss. This experience leaves a palpable mark on the album: between calm and unrest, closeness and distance, emerges a music that makes absence tangible – an unflinching exploration of what is no longer there.
