Keren Ann And Quatuor Debussy

Description

Keren Ann's repertoire (8 studio albums) is filled with timeless classics and gems to rediscover, enhanced by the arrangements and sound textures of one of the most prominent French string quartets. From "Jardin d’hiver" to the recent album "Bleue," Keren Ann and the Quatuor Debussy revisit 20 years of songwriting in unique and rearranged versions. Ten songs written between 2000 and 2019 by Keren Ann were recorded live in 2021 with her stage partners from the Quatuor Debussy. From Jardin d’hiver to the recent album Bleue, Keren Ann & Quatuor Debussy revisit 20 years of songwriting in original versions with strings. Blending folk, pop, and chanson, in both French and English, Keren Ann's repertoire (8 studio albums) is rich with timeless classics and gems to rediscover, magnified by the arrangements and sound textures of the strings from one of the most eminent French quartets. In the style of an "unplugged" best-of, the album was recorded in two days at Labomatic Studios (Paris) during sessions filled with visceral energy, marked by the emotion of reunions during the lockdown when concerts were being canceled. Invited to collaborate together in 2017, Keren Ann and the Quatuor Debussy shared the stage for the first time in Lyon. Since then, they have regularly continued their musical conversation during concerts in prestigious venues in France and abroad. From performance to performance, the five musicians tirelessly work and experiment with the repertoire, regularly enriching it with new scores.
