Filip Jordens - Hommage à Brel

Description

« Par son talent, sa voix, son corps, avec la complicité de ses musiciens, Filip Jordens nous convie à retrouver le grand Jacques.
C'est la puissance, la force, la rage, l'ironie, la tendresse de Brel qui soudain éclatent de nouveau.
Grâce à cet interprète hors pair qu'est Filip Jordens, on peut alors mesurer combien l'œuvre de Brel non seulement est toujours vivante, mais aussi combien elle est singulière et actuelle.
Brel poète, Brel visionnaire, Brel musicien, Brel comédien, Brel satiriste, Brel profondément humain.
Un maître, en somme. Un classique, servi par un Filip Jordens habité et éblouissant.» Philippe Claudel, écrivain et cinéaste.
Entouré de son quatuor, l’acteur et chanteur Filip Jordens livre un hommage d’une virtuosité époustouflante au Grand Jacques, en incarnant littéralement et magistralement l’enfant terrible de la chanson française sur son terrain de prédilection : la scène. Ni imitation, ni adaptation : Filip Jordens préfère parler de "restauration", dans le respect de la partition. Le résultat du travail est d’une efficacité redoutable : la magie opère dès la première chanson, l’émotion brelienne est au rendez-vous.
Si la ressemblance physique est troublante, le talent du comédien belge est de nous restituer Brel en scène au plus près de l’original ; l'actualité de son répertoire n'en est que plus saisissante. Du timbre et des inflexions de la voix à la gestuelle du corps et à ses mimiques, il met sa science d’acteur et de chanteur, son corps et son âme, au service de l’incarnation fougueuse, généreuse et sincère du redresseur de plat pays.

“Through his talent, his voice, his body, with the complicity of his musicians, Filip Jordens invites us to rediscover the great Jacques.
It is the power, the strength, the rage, the irony, the tenderness of Brel which suddenly burst forth again.
Thanks to this outstanding performer who is Filip Jordens, we can then measure how Brel's work is not only still alive, but also how singular and current it is.
Brel poet, Brel visionary, Brel musician, Brel actor, Brel satirist, Brel deeply human.
A master, in short. A classic, served by a lively and dazzling Filip Jordens.” Philippe Claudel, writer and filmmaker.
Surrounded by his quartet, actor and singer Filip Jordens delivers a tribute of breathtaking virtuosity to the Grand Jacques, literally and masterfully embodying the enfant terrible of French song on his favorite terrain: the stage. Neither imitation nor adaptation: Filip Jordens prefers to speak of "restoration", while respecting the score. The result of the work is extremely effective: the magic happens from the first song, the Brelian emotion is there.
If the physical resemblance is uncanny, the talent of the Belgian actor is to restore Brel on stage as closely as possible to the original; the topicality of its repertoire is all the more striking. From the timbre and inflections of the voice to the body gestures and his facial expressions, he puts his knowledge as an actor and singer, his body and his soul, at the service of the fiery, generous and sincere incarnation of the dish straightener country.
