Digital Booklet
|
"... proves that, at age 87, she’s still more than up to the challenge posed by Brel’s virtually inimitable style ... Greco interprets these Brel-associated chansons with a fervour that never once betrays her near-nonagenarian age, throwing herself fully into each performance. Accompanied by highly sympathetic, often idiosyncratic arrangements by former Brel companion Gerard Jouannest (also Greco’s husband), she fully embodies each performance, putting the whole of her heart and soul on display. One of the last remaining links to a fading generation of performers, Greco’s work here is a rare treasure and a welcome tribute to her late contemporary."

Juliette Gréco claims she was destined to record an album of songs by Jacques Brel, a destiny she fulfilled with this 2013 release. Throughout, she remains faithful to the originals out of friendship and respect for the composer, yet she brings her own unique identity to her interpretations. Gréco Chante Brel is a rare work, a musical jewel full of emotions, a dream come true for Brel fans who have not heard these songs sung like this since Brel himself.
