Overview

Festival Monte le Son Ô Féminins: rediscovering Colette Magny

Colette Magny (1926-1997) is the best-kept treasure of French song. A singer-songwriter, she gave up an important post to launch her career in song at the age of 36. After the success of "Melocoton", the music industry tried to exploit the vein of white blues singer.

This misjudged Colette Magny, and her determination not to be pigeonholed into a single style. Her freedom of tone and her political ideas would take her permanently away from radio and television.

Lila Tamazit Trio does justice to her work; it resonates strikingly in the light of current events. With Lila Tamazit on vocals (voice of Arte, TSF Jazz, Nova…), Vincent Viala on piano (Scène Jazz d'Orléans), and David Georgelet on drums and percussion (international stages).

By reservation only, from 21 October.
