"Stalker" is Yannick Barman's new solo project. Created in honor of Tatkovsky, it was first inspired by images captured during his previous solo tours in Europe, Russia and Asia, from 2012 to 2015.

The visual part of the spectacle will consist of untreated photos and videos, frequently in black and white. They serve as the composer’s inspiration of the digital and electronic musics, which are flavored with inflections of the blues, a distorted trumpet, and sounds which evoke both a cinematographic universe as well as a curious narrative.

These sounds and images can be infinitely combined, creating each time a different, and strange, story, which the spectator-listener can freely and individually interpret.

About the Performer

YANNICK BARMAN. Born in St-Maurice in 1973.This Jazz and electronical acoustic show includes both visuals and music. The artist is playing trumpet and computer, accompanied by live electronic music. The compositions are realized from trumpet's sounds, sampled and transformed then added with electronic beats. The result is the extraction of a new sound potential from the trumpet.

Yannick Barman can be called a crossover artist. Starting out as a classical Jazz artist, Barman soon started to take an interest in electronical music. From that point on he integrated computers into his sounds. Because of his delicate beats and ambient-sound background he gets invited to projects by Jazz as well as Classical musicians and tours around Europe, Asia and Africa. He has repeatedly with the European Orchestra cooperation.
