Cette rencontre particulière donne un cocktail contrasté: incandescence visionnaire/auto-dérision ironique, jazz-rock furieux/ballades lyriques et charnelles, compositions rodées/improvisations totales. Un concert d’énergies engagées, lyriques et très variées. Cette musique, c’est le chaînon manquant entre Pink Floyd et Archie Shepp! «Animus Anima, ce n’est pas plus du jazz que le bebop n’en était quand il est apparu. (...)Une recherche faite par des savants pas si fous que ça, par des artistes qui savent jouer, par (et pour) des gens à l’instinct ancré dans leurs curieux quotidiens» Philippe Dethy – Jazz8.
On stage, the bitter-sweet cocktail of these unlikely ingredients form incandescent, visionary, sometimes self mocking and ironic moments which combine hard jazz rock with lyrical and sensual ballads, drifting melody and wild improvisation. The concert is like a ride through very varied feelings that combine sharp focus and lyricism. Animus Anima’s music is the missing link between Pink Floyd and Archie Shepp! «Animus Anima is not more jazz than be-bop was in its time. (...) An adventure made by not so mad scientists, dexterous art for people whose instincts are linked to their every day curiosity» Philippe Dethy – Jazz8.

Animus Anima, c’est la réunion de 4 musiciens: Nicolas Ankoudinoff, saxophoniste et compositeur, vient du jazz, de la musique improvisée et des musiques nouvelles; Benoist Eil, guitariste, triture les sons, improvise avec ses larsens; Pascal Rousseau, tubiste, évolue sur les scènes classiques contemporaines parisiennes et Etienne Plumer, batteur coréen de Bastogne, vient de la tradition du M-Base, des musiques noires américaines. L’ensemble donne une orchestration rare, une texture sonore inédite. Oratorio (Tears for NY, tiré du poème d’Adonis, avec 4 chanteurs et 2 récitants), musiques de film (sur le travail de Maya Deren), happenings (avec 9 invités durant 6 heures)... Animus Anima étend son champ d’expérience émotionnelle.
The Animus Anima group came into being following an experimental meeting of four musicians from very different backgrounds. Nicolas Ankoudinoff, saxophonist and composer, comes from the territory of jazz, improvised and new music; Benoist Eil, guitarist, blends sound with feedback improvisations; Pascal Rousseau, tuba, performs on the contemporary classical stages of Paris and Etienne Plumer, Korean drummer from South Belgium comes from the M-base tradition of black American music. Working together they generate startling sound textures. Oratorio (Tears for NY, from the poem of Adonis, with 4 singers and 2 speakers), filmworks (on Maya Deren’s work), happenings (with 9 guests, during 6 hours)... Animus Anima extends its field of emotional experience.
