La vie, c’est simple
Nous perçons les oreilles / Jean Derome, Joane Hétu
This is music that doesn’t push boundaries
; instead it simply creates new dimensions without boundaries. — Musicworks, Canada
Their greatest triumph is in raising the banal everyday stuff to provocative art. — Coda Magazine, Canada
Duet composed of Jean Derome and Joane Hétu, Nous perçons les oreilles is two saxophones, two voices, two gargoyles, two satyrs
“This album basis of our work is songs and improvisation. Our songs speaks of our life. They are ordinary (like us) but not easy going (like her). We really love to improvise together. It is not easy to describe accuretaly what we do while improvising. It is very close to the human beast that we are.”
