Review
Mauve is a plant, but also a color, similar to lilac. Does Emmanuel goes "mauve" now? At least, his music sprays a fragrance of it. Light, relaxed, cheerfully smiling: Emmanuel presents a wonderful bouquet of tunes of his own. Here and there, a certain influence of Eddy Louiss shines through, but generally Bex's music finds his very own style. This CD is an outstanding result of musical creativity and balanced nature.
