Gus Viseur is a mythical forerunner of the jazz accordion, having collaborated in the thirties with Django Reinhardt's Hot Club de France, but he is one of the French masters of the instrument, with whom he contributed to making the musette great and accompanied among the others Edith Piaf. His compatriot and present-day of Manouche origin, Marcel Loeffler, pays homage to him in this work, which features compositions by both accordionist, along with other traditional and original pieces. The figure is very traditional, nor could it be otherwise seen the program and the formation, which sees alongside the accordion only guitars (there is also Mandino Reinhardt), in addition to the double bass by Claudius Dupont which is in fact from the first piece perhaps the only element of partial originality, with his (albeit brief) solos. For the rest, beautiful melodies, now faster, now very touching such as "Le bal du petit jardin" or "Flambée montalbanaise" (beautifully interpreted on vocals by André Minvelle), which highlight in particular the qualities of Loeffler, agile on the keyboard and capable of beautiful sound. The pieces in which Raymond Halbeisen's clarinet takes place are more open, but the atmospheres that, from the program, make so much vieille France are always very involving.
