Henri Texier
Henri Texier, the iconic French jazz double bassist, has been a pioneering force in European jazz since the 1960s. Born in Paris, Texier's journey began at the age of 15, playing piano in nightclubs before transitioning to the double bass, inspired by the likes of Wilbur Ware, Don Cherry, and Ornette Coleman. Over his five-decade career, Texier has not only recorded extensively as a leader but also performed alongside jazz legends such as Bud Powell and Don Cherry. His music is a rich tapestry of influences, reflecting his deep engagement with native American history, African rhythms, and the social echoes of his time, including the tumultuous events of May 1968. Texier's discography, much of which is on Michel Crier’s Label Bleu, is a testament to his enduring creativity and his role as a catalyst for musical adventures, making him a true hero of world jazz. Whether leading his own ensembles or collaborating with other greats, Henri Texier's music is a powerful, intimate dialogue that resonates with the pulse of his unyielding artistic vision.
