Renée Fleming - Haunted Heart CD

 Certains artistes peuvent tout faire
Merci madame Fleming de ce grand moment d'émotion. Rien à prouver. Seulement de la sincerité et laisser la magie opérer... Il faut oser se faire plaisir pour nous faire plaisir. Ce disque doit faire hurler les musiciens qui font des manières, et mettre en extases ceux qui laissent parler les oreilles et le coeur. Merci Renée, et je retrouve dans 3 semaines à Covent Garden à Londres pour Otello.

 Fleming proves that she is all-around singer
Renee Fleming's "Haunted Heart" is not just another "crossover" album. While numerous operatic singers have recorded jazz-flavored albums (often with disastrous results), Ms. Fleming proudly displays her roots as a jazz vocalist (during her student years, the late bandleader and saxophonist Illinois Jacquet was so impressed with her vocal prowess that he wanted to hire her to sing with his big band) in a smoky alto register which will astonish those fans who know her only as an operatic soprano. She also could not have chosen two more sympathetic accompanists than contemporary jazzmen Fred Hersch (piano) and Bill Frisell (guitar). Therefore, I rate Ms. Fleming's "Haunted Heart" as one of the outstanding releases of 2005.
