Some time ago, Jean-Philippe Allard took my hand in his and led me on a magical walk through the so very special musical landscape of New York City. He wanted to. This was one of the most beautiful gifts I ever received in my life. To discover the face, eyes, hands, bodies of the music, to see it two-legged and human! What a privilege.
It made me feel almost 60 years younger! Yes, yes!
It reminded me of the time after the liberation (from nazi occupation,) when Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, the Modern Jazz Quartet, Madame Ella Fitzgerald… the list would be too long and amazing, all turned up without warning at the Tabou. The feeling was the same. Warm and protected by Jean-Philippe Allard.
I share his and Gérard Jouannest’s work and am dazzled by this Black and White light.
Right now, with the Polydor team in Paris, along with those who love and protect me, I am going through an uncommon adventure, both humanly and artistically, a strong, very strong adventure.
Thank you Jean-Philippe Allard, you make my eyes sparkle.
