About this concert
On ne compte plus le nombre de fois où l’album Ghost Song de la vocaliste Cécile McLorin Salvant s’est hissé en tête des listes annuelles, faisant notamment l’unanimité dans les rangs du New York Times ou de Jazzwise. Bref, l’Américaine est désormais de celles que l’on ne présente plus. Avec ce projet, elle passe du statut de brillante interprète de standards du siècle dernier à celui de styliste aventureuse de morceaux originaux, se tournant vers elle-même pour devenir narratrice de ses profondeurs les plus intimes. Et avec la classe qu’on lui connaît, elle parviendra à nouveau – comme elle le fait depuis plus d’une douzaine d’années – à suspendre le public à chacun de ses mots, surtout en si bonne compagnie instrumentale.
Cécile McLorin Salvant sera de retour sur notre scène le 17 mars dans le cadre du Klarafestival.
