About this concert
A l’occasion de la sortie de son nouvel album en 2023, force est de constater qu’il faut un talent audacieux pour se glisser dans la peau de l’immense chanteuse qu’est Ella Fitzgerald. Robin a déjà montré qu’elle était prête à relever le défi, en reprenant des chansons de cette musicienne légendaire dans ses concerts.
Emotionnellement déchirante sur plusieurs titres de ce nouvel album, Robin récré l’univers laissé par sa congénère : Interprétation des ballades et scat accompli. Sans essayer de copier, c’est plutôt par sa propre interprétation que Robin lui rend hommage.
Rejoignez la chanteuse à la voix puissante, alors qu’elle rend hommage à une icône de la musique du 20e siècle !
