LITTLE GUINGUETTE
Little Guinguette takes us back to the days when Swing was all the rage in the smoky bars of Harlem and Saint-Germain-des-Prés. From Billie Holiday to Sidney Bechet via Joséphine Baker, the trio from Montpellier brilliantly interprets the great Jazz standards as well as the little forgotten treasures of the 1930s and 1940s. The velvety sound of the clarinet, mingled with the sweetness of the voice, the finesse of the cornet and the sensuality of the saxophone, all transported by the swing of a gypsy guitar and the percussion of a pair of clappers. This alchemy of timbres revives the blues, ballads and charlestons of yesteryear.
