Madeleine Peyroux - 2011 - Standing On the Rooftop

  Madeleine_Peyroux-Standing_On_the_Rooftop

Madeleine Peyroux comenta sobre este su más reciente disco:
"He estado trabajando sobre la base de las relaciones humanas, lo he desarrollado en la co-autoria de los temas y algo nuevo se ha apoderado de mí. Este proyecto está destinado a ser un paisaje de ensueño más ancho que mis grabaciones anteriores. Estoy interesada en la exploración de sonidos más difíciles, sonidos incluso feos ... tratando de encontrar algo más crudo que la voz que ahora tengo y el acompañamiento que he acostumbrado a usar"


Madeleine Peyroux es una de las más interesantes compositoras e intérpretes de nuestro tiempo. Folk, blues y jazz se acercan a la perfección en la voz de Madeleine Peyroux.
"Standing On the Rooftop" es su quinto álbum en solitario y en él se abarca un amplio espectro musical,  desde la arrulladora y suave "Lay Your Sleeping Head, My Love" (adaptada del poema del mismo nombre de WH Auden) pasando por el impresionante "Super Hero" hasta el inteligente y caprichoso "Don't Pick a Fight With a Poet". 

Participan en este disco, Bill Wyman, el guitarra Marc Ribot (Masada, John Zorn, Tom Waits, Elvis Costello),  el piano Allen Toussaint, el guitarra Chris Bruce (Sello, John Legend), el batería Charley Drayton (Neil Young, Johnny Cash), el bajista Me'shell Ndegeocello, Glenn Patscha y John Kirby entre otros. 

Se incluyen 12 canciones originales y 3 versiones de clásicos de The Beatles ("Martha, My Dear"), Bob Dylan ("I Threw it All Away") y Robert Johnson ("Love in Vain"), todas ellas muy personales.
La producción se debe a Craig Street, quien ya produjo a Norah Jones y K.D. Lang.


Editorial Reviews 

From the Artist 

"I have been building on the relationships I developed in co-writing, and something new has taken hold of me," Peyroux says. "This project is meant to be a wider dreamscape than previous recordings. I'm interested in exploring tougher sounds, even ugly sounds... trying to find something more raw than the voice that I have now, and in the accompaniment that I have become used to."

About the Artist
Songstress Madeleine Peyroux is known to her fans for intimately arranged covers of the early American blues and jazz repertoire. She began as a teenage busker, honing her vocal and guitar skills on the famously quaint, acoustic streets of Europe, where she molded her style on the cornerstones of jazz: Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith and Louis Armstrong. Amidst an oddly sparse recording career beginning in 1996, she is most known for her 2005 release `Careless Love' (Rounder Records), produced by Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock) who fused Peyroux's personal and vulnerable take on more modern material, i.e., Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, cult legend Elliott Smith, with that of her beloved torch songs and early blues.

Playing Changes - Madeleine Peyroux BIO Songstress

Madeleine Peyroux is known to her fans for intimately arranged covers of the early American blues and jazz repertoire. She began as a teenage busker, honing her vocal and guitar skills on the famously quaint, acoustic streets of Europe, where she molded her style on the cornerstones of jazz: Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith and Louis Armstrong. Amidst an oddly sparse recording career beginning in 1996, she is most known for her 2005 release `Careless Love' (Rounder Records), produced by Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell, Herbie Hancock) who fused Peyroux's personal and vulnerable take on more modern material, i.e., Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, cult legend Elliott Smith, with that of her beloved torch songs and early blues. Peyroux took a turn into uncharted territory with her last album, `Bare Bones', a collection of self-penned compositions and co-writes with heavy hitters such as Joe Henry and Steely Dan's Walter Becker. Although generally met with critical acclaim, it garnered less attention than her previous work. She toured until mid 2010, including a triple bill with Diana Krall and Melody Gardot in Australia, and is now keeping behind the scenes in preparation for a return to the studio. Producer Craig Street (Cassandra Wilson, Joe Henry, Chocolate Genius, Norah Jones) is set to hold the reigns this time, and the album will be all new compositions. "I have been building on the relationships I developed in co-writing, and something new has taken hold of me," Peyroux says. "This project is meant to be a wider dreamscape than previous recordings. I'm interested in exploring tougher sounds, even ugly sounds... trying to find something more raw than the voice that I have now, and in the accompaniment that I have become used to." One interesting collaborator that may have the key to opening new doors is the Rolling Stones', Bill Wyman, whom Peyroux met at the Nice Jazz Festival while waiting to hear B.B. King, and the two then began writing together. A strong point for Peyroux this year was performing their song for the children of a displaced persons' camp in Port-au- Prince, Haiti this summer. The song, entitled 'The Kind You Can't Afford', Peyroux says, is a testament to owning what money can't buy. About the visit, she recounts, "I've had a sincere desire to be in Haiti ever since I started reading Edwidge Danticat, but never did visit before the storm. It was a life-changing experience which I'll always remember, and the songs I performed there will now always have that flavor of pure music and joy in my memory." Other current collaborators include Jonatha Brooke, David Batteau, Andy Rosen, and Jenny Scheinman. The album is due to be released in 2011, and Peyroux plans to begin touring again in the US and Europe in early spring. "I think my fans are eager to hear something different," Peyroux says, and pauses with restraint before adding, "Music has grown into another place in my mind... I am the same singer that I was as a teen, that wants to grow into music, wherever it comes from. I don't believe I've given up anything. I've added to myself." Let's hope that that little air of restraint doesn't hold her back.

Aziza Mustafa Zadeh - Contrasts

Aziza Mustafa Zadeh - Contrasts Aziza Mustafa Zadeh, hija del malogrado pianista Vagif Mustafa Zadeh ( de cuyas obras hay que destacar la obra "Aspiratión" y el cual inventó un tipo de fusión entre la música de jazz y la autóctona de Azerbaiján), nace en 1969, siguiendo los mismos pasos que su padre. Sus apariciones en varios eventos en Europa le llevaron para firmar por el sello Sonny. Con un ataque impetuoso, sobre todo en sus solos explosivos, su intensidad, más que su estilo, recuerda a los primeros pianistas de bebop. Ello se hace especialmente patente cuando canta en scat a gran velocidad consiguiendo una salvaje relación entre el piano y la voz, a menudo sobre métricas ajenas a la tradición occidental, pero comunes en Baku. Esta nativa de Azerbaiján, es sin duda una de los dos grandes pianistas de jazz del continente asiático (la otra es la gran Toshiko Akiyoshi). Dotada de un gran virtuosismo, su música es emotiva, sentimental y ello sin renunciar a sus raíces, ni
