Sessions Acoustique
Au hasard des rencontres et des propositions. Voilà comment on essaie de faire naviguer notre vieux rafiot. Voilà comment on se retrouve dans le bar des luxueux locaux d'EMI avec Stacey Kent et ses deux musiciens. Après avoir répété pour notre session et cherché quel endroit irait le mieux pour filmer, Stacey Kent aussi simple qu'adorable nous propose de rester dans ce bar qui ressemble à un hall ou uce hall qui ressemble à un bar. Tout simplement. Et si il est vrai qu'on a un peu hésité à mettre en ligne à cause d'un mix des plus inégalitaires (pas facile de rivalier avec un saxo ténor !!!), on s'est vite dit que l'on ne pouvait pas garder ses deux chansons juste pour nous...
Merci à Stacey Kent et ses deux musiciens, merci à EMI et merci à Benoit.
Hello Stacey :) Merci pour l'ajout... Ta voix est envoutante, ton univers jazzy est sublime... J'adore tes chansons en français... Je t'invite dans mon univers, en espérant te croiser au fil de mes textes... Bientôt en ligne "Au matin de mes errances" et "Bourrasque en mer"... @ très vite ici ou ailleurs... Musicalement. Jérémy.
Hello Stacey ! Congratulation for your music. I love it a lot. We've recorded "strollin" at home on sunday, and I'd like to know if you like it or not. Thank you for your answer. ISABELLE
