why this is interesting
# Why Jérôme Poirier Merits Attention Poirier's work exemplifies a particular rigour within improvisation—one that prizes restraint and listening over virtuosity. Operating from Paris and through his Three Legs Duck netlabel, he pursues a kind of chamber-scale improvisation that reveals itself gradually, rewarding sustained attention. His dual practice—both as a soloist and within the structured melodic framework of Landing Cellophane—suggests an artist genuinely curious about what emerges when constraint and freedom negotiate. Rather than showcase technique, his recordings document genuine encounter: the patient accumulation of sound, silence treated as material, and an almost conversational approach to instrumental dialogue.
