A French musician of Turkish parentage, Ghédalia Tazartès is an uncompromising artist who defies categorisation. His public appearances remain exceptional events as he rarely performs in concerts or releases albums. As part of the Fondation Cartier Patti Smith exhibition in 2008, he revisited his last two albums. 5 Rimbaud 1 Verlaine (Jardin au Fou, 2006) is a musical and poetic experiment influenced by the world of Léo Ferré and the atmosphere of a noise festival. Hystérie off Music (Jardin au Fou, 2007) is an infernal musical montage that combines concrete music, imported laments and unidentified sound elements.
