Seigneur

Description

With "Seigneur", Roberto Alagna delivers an album imbued with spirituality. Between faith, love and hope, the tenor pays a most personal tribute to the immense cathedral of lyrical art to which he regularly adds his stone.Born from a desire for sharing and communion, extending a concert tour specially designed for churches and cathedrals, the recording presents a particularly original repertoire: mixing religious pieces with a selection of French and Italian songs of sacred inspiration, it combines music steeped in feelings, emotions and vitality. Through tracks that each speak to the soul — from Schubert and Bach-Gounod's Ave Maria to the traditional "Fenesta che luciva" or "Bella Ciao", from Léo Ferré's "Avec le temps" to "La Valse de l'Espérance", not forgetting the flagship recreations such as "Seigneur, ne me laisse pas" or "Madone au coeur d'or", Roberto Alagna reveals himself and transports us."Seigneur" is also the album of an artistic connection, where the spontaneity of the passionate trio formed by Roberto Alagna and his two accomplices, guitarist, singer-songwriter Jean-Félix Lalanne and pianist Marek Ruszczynski, shines through. With palpable joy, all three come together here in the studio but record entirely under "live" conditions. In all simplicity, even intimacy, they deliver a concentrated dose of emotions and commune with beauty.
