Le voyage is an album by the Paul Motian Trio, recorded in March 1979 and released on ECM September later that year—Motian's fourth album for the label. The trio features bassist Jean-François Jenny-Clark and saxophonist Charles Brackeen.
The AllMusic review by Don Snowden stated, "Le Voyage is a very reflective, ruminative disc bordering on chamber jazz and marked by that distinctive ECM sound, clean but very distant. It's top-quality music, but look to Dance for more liveliness and ebullience in this phase of Paul Motian's career."[2]
