Symmetri (LJ52) is the debut album from French guitarist and composer Cassius Lambert, presenting a refined and contemporary vision of jazz rooted in clarity of form and rhythmic precision. Leading a tight-knit quartet, Lambert explores a set of original compositions shaped by balanced structures, melodic economy and subtle harmonic colour, where each piece unfolds with a strong sense of proportion and design—true to the album’s title. The music moves between modern jazz lyricism, understated groove and more open improvisational passages, allowing the ensemble to navigate both written architecture and spontaneous interplay with ease. Released in 2019 on Laborie Jazz, Symmetri establishes Lambert as a thoughtful new voice on the European scene, offering a debut defined by compositional control, textural sensitivity and a quietly confident ensemble sound.
