Un soir entre mille

Description

Twelve years after her previous album, Marie Paule Belle returned to the studio to record 15 unreleased tracks in piano-vocal format. This new opus, Un soir entre mille, delivers autobiographical songs, funny or sentimental. The lyrics are by Marie-Paule Belle and Isabelle Mayereau. Her longtime songwriters, Françoise Mallet-Joris and Michel Grisolia, were also invited to take part in this major comeback, and their words, although written some years earlier, are still relevant today, like Pays Natal (a song covered by Souad Massi on her album Oumniya) or Se dire oui, se dire non about the virtual world. The artist tells her story, as never before, in music, about her relationship with Françoise Mallet-Joris in Beau temps à Saint-Germain, Un soir entre mille, about her family in Avec toi, je riais souvent, Il écoutait le coeur des gens or Petit frère, and evokes her childhood in Au bois de buis. Her great friend Serge Lama signs a poignant lyric with L'ombre de son chien. All the music is by Marie-Paule Belle. Over the years, her voice has become deeper and more velvety, and her piano finely and elegantly sketches her melodies. She opens to us her casket of memories and feelings where time stands still to let us savor this intimate atmosphere. It is without a doubt her most personal album!
