Roots and Leaves officially released!
By Didier Verna
After more than one year of hard work, the second album of the @-quartet, my band as a leader, guitarist and composer, is finally out!
The album offers 11 brand new original compositions brilliantly served by a dream team rhythm section: Laurent Epstein (piano), Yoni Zelnik (upright bass) and David Georgelet (drums).
The album is now for sale on my website and has also reached Amazon and iTunes already. There is currently a special offer for the purchase of both @-quartet albums.
I hope you will enjoy the music!

The @-quartet's 2nd album is on the way. Please help crowdfund it !
By Didier Verna
Dear readers,
it's been a while since I gave any musical news, but that was only the calm before the storm... The year 2014 is going to be particularly lively, as the @-quartet is brought back to life, with:
- 11 new and entirely original compositions,
- a team renewed for one half (*),
- a first concert scheduled for the end of March in Germany, and I hope the first of a long series,
- and last but not least... a second album currently underway!
This 2nd album project is also for me the opportunity to experiment with a modern form of auto-production: crowdfunding. You can help bring this project to life by contributing in advance to its funding. In exchange, you receive various rewards (the CD in avant-premiere, 2 CDs "packs", alternate takes that won't be on the record etc.).
If you want to know everything about the project and contribute to make it a reality, let's meet again on the funding site, at the following address:

This new album will be entitled "Roots and (then he) Leaves", and it needs you to grow! Thank you so much, and happy new year celebrations!
Footnotes: (*) 3 exceptional musicians form the rythm section in the quartet: Laurent Epstein, piano, Yoni Zelnik, doublebass, and David Georgelet, drums.
