Who was Michel Petrucciani?
There is almost nothing impossible if you put all your passion into what you do. Examples abound. Scientists like Stephen Hawking, Olympic athletes like Teresa Perales or if we talk about jazz, that immense, colossal pianist, who went by the name of Michel Petrucciani.
Born in France in 1962, Michel Petrucciani soon had to learn to live with osteogenesis imperfecta, a terrible disease that, in addition to deforming bones, prevents those who suffer from it from reaching more than one meter in height. He didn’t need to measure more. Coming from a family of musicians of Italian-French origin, he began studying music, as they say, “in his earliest childhood.”
Although of course the illness he suffered caused him multiple problems (his parents or siblings often had to literally ‘carry him’) to take him to many places, as he would later explain this also had its advantages, since it allowed him to concentrate all his attention. his attention on music and the piano. “It would have been impossible for me to be distracted by sports or other things,” he would declare years later when reviewing his history.
As usually happens in these cases, all hopes were placed on young Michel one day becoming a great classical concert pianist, capable of leading the best orchestras. And he would lead orchestras, yes, but not exactly the ones dreamed of by his family. Coming into’s music contact with Duke Ellington at the age of fifteen would cause his plans to take a 180-degree turn.
At the age of 17, when he was already unanimously considered a piano prodigy, Michel Petrucciani recorded his first jazz album in France, which almost immediately led him to move to California to “sign” with the group of the famous saxophonist Charles Lloyd.
From then on, although Petrucciani would return to record group and solo albums in France, he would hardly separate from LLoyd. Mythical in this sense is the performance they both gave on February 22, 1985. Seconds before the concert began, Lloyd entered the Town Hall in New York with Petrucciani in his arms and sat him on the piano stool, for which It would be a historic night.
From Petrucciani we can recommend great albums such as “Pianism” , “Power of Three” (recorded with Wayne Shorter and Jim Hall), “Music” or “Playground”. However, it is the double CD that includes his performances in Paris and is titled ” Au Teathre Des Champs-Elysees” that probably represents the peak of his recording career. Of course without prejudice to many collaborations with other great artists, such as Dizzy Gillespie, Dave Holland, Tony Williams and many others.
His enormous talent and overwhelming personality managed to leave the illness that consumed him in the background, which in addition to popularity gave him a brief marriage (He married the Italian classical pianist Gilda Buttà, but they only lasted three months) and several partners. With one of them, the Canadian Marie-Laure Roperch, he had a son (Alexander) who unfortunately inherited his father’s illness.
His short but very intense career would not be enough for much more. Petrucciani died on January 6, 1999, at the age of 36, becoming one of the great legends of European jazz on his own merits.
