Relying on the linguistics of music as the international language is not entirely necessary to fully appreciate Daniel Roure’s Le Temps d’un Jazz. The Marseille native has been immersed in jazz and French music his entire life. It is no surprise that his composing and performing prowess feels completely natural. Roure surrounds himself with a bevy of other talented Europeans who also share his enthusiasm and profundity for jazz.

JAZZHOT . Serge BAUDOT. Le Temps D'un Jazz. Daniel Roure (p, voc), Paul Pioli (g), Francesco Castellani (tb), Fabien Giacchi (b), Gilles Alamel (dm) in March 2001, Marseille. 42 '38'Daniel Roure saw his album "Le Temps d'un Jazz" on a jazz broadcast to more than 6 million times on Pandora Radio (USA). He made a remarkable breakthrough in the ratings of internet radios, the United States, Canada and Australia. By Jove! We're impressed! Daniel Roure has a deep voice, pleasant, well-modulated with perfect diction, the relaxation, charm. I sometimes find him accents of Jean Sablon especially in the low and slow tempos; he shows, very gentle. For this record he is surrounded by great jazz musicians of the South-East of France. There is sometimes a certain perfume of "King Cole trio" with Pioli in the role of Oscar Moore and Giacchi in that of Wesley Prince such as in "J'ai Vu" plus a discreet drummer. it scales well. A nice trombone solo on "Un Petit Bateau" kind bossa nova. All trombone solos are very good, as well as guitarist. "Je Lis Là" which is actually an adaptation of "Rosetta" is perhaps, the best time of the disk, so swing song that fits perfectly with the group. Other pieces are as French as adaptations of standards. The song "Les Baleines Bleues" has a lot of charm and quiet up. No, it makes a surprising unhappiness among Anglo-Saxon who like this "French touch" with the sound of the French bonus. The first song says "it's time for a jazz of yesteryear" That's exactly right, beautiful swing song with clever lyrics, all in a beautiful musical setting. Serge Baudot. JAZZHOT 2014 -

DANIEL ROURE – Rarities (VLS Productions – Distribution: Inouie Distribution – 6 titles) Since “Les Baleines Bleues” in 2001, huge success in the United States, Canada and Australia,60 million streaming, here is Daniel Roure who once again rolls on the road of swing song with this eleventh album. For Europe, this style goes back roughly to Jean Sablon accompanied by Django Reinhardt, Charles Trénet, Johnny Hess, to arrive at Paolo Conte, and a few others including Thomas Dutronc and Daniel Roure. The voice has taken on both more velvet and intensity, more relaxation, remaining in the medium with sometimes a little Brassens side. We admire the always perfect diction. No frills; the lyrics well placed on time the song takes off on an aerial swing. This time Daniel Roure has abandoned the piano, to leave it to the excellent Philippe Martel, which gives him more ease, more space to sing. He joined the best rhythmic of the South with Philippe Le Van (dm) and Christophe Le Van (b); and two blowers, Thomas Roure, tenor in the Ellingtonian tradition, and Oh surprise, Nicolas Folmer (tp, flh,) who is of the most modern jazz expression. It fits perfectly into the Swing Era mould, and its solos, its backing vocals, are a marvel, “it swings like the good old days”. He is also the author of the arrangements, again simplicity, elegance, a swing setting for the songs. The lyrics and music are by Laëtitia Vanhove, Serge Mounier and Daniel Roure. They got along wonderfully to produce these songs that are both swing and chanson française. With simple, direct and meaningful words: Elegance / It's a moment of charm / A word that disarms us / The beauty of the gesture. This is the definition of this record: Elegance, charm, beauty, carried away by the breath of swing. Serge Baudot (Evasionmag.com 2022
