The 38th edition of the Cartagena Jazz Festival begins this Friday, November 2, at the Nuevo Teatro Circo with a double program that will feature the amazing Camille Bertault and the indispensable, Madeleine Peyroux.
Bertault will start the day at 9:30 p.m.
There are still locations for 20 euros.
The French press has been unanimous in describing Camille Bertault as an impressive artist.
This young woman is one of the great revelations of the year in a category, which is unclassifiable.
It became known through social networks.
He modeled the legendary John Coltrane solo "Giant Steps" by putting a voice to each note.
In just a few days, he got 400,000 visits.
He just published the album Pas de Géant.
In this, his second album, is virtuous, fun and endearing in equal parts.
"I wanted to make an album that looks like me, without being attached to a single style" says Camille.
The singer passes with astonishing brashness from Brassens to Ravel, without forgetting Legrand or Coltrane and Gainsbourg.
Of her the specialized press has said: "With an impressive virtuosity and some refined texts without despising the humor, Camille Bertault is a great talent with much to say." Or "Camille Bertault is more than a simple vocal gymnast;
she is an excellent songwriter and a singer who carefully exploits the emotional impact of a melody. "
After her, she will take the stage of the New Theater Circus, Madeleine Peyroux.
The sophisticated singer made a brilliant appearance in the world of jazz singers.
From the beginning they compared her to Billie Holiday.
And it was even said that he seemed to be singing from another time.
It was 20 years ago, when his first album, Dreamland, was released, recorded with some of the best musicians in New York.
Then, Madeleine Peyroux (Athens, Georgia, USA, 1974) practically disappeared for eight years.
Until the edition of Careless Love, produced by Larry Klein.
The supposed frightened one gave rise to many speculations.
It is not a singer to use.
To his indomitable and reserved attitude are added some carefully chosen repertoires, peculiar compositions of his own and standards that are difficult to personalize that he interprets with an elegant and sensual voice with which he stands out from possible comparisons.
And the chromatic and expressive range of the American singer, guitarist and composer is infinite.
Twenty-two years and nine albums after the superb Dreamland, his debut album, Peyroux continues to challenge the confines of jazz and venturing with unusual curiosity in the fertile fields of contemporary music.
Anthem, his new album, produced and co-written by Larry Klein (Lizz Wright, Melody Gardot, Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock), is a sober, poetic and, at times, philosophical look at the current state of the world but full of hope and optimism .
