about

ENG

Imagine the music of twelve of Baudelaire's sublime poems, chosen from among hundreds of others just as fascinating. A musical ornament thought not in the soft or melancholic way which often dresses the texts of poetic nature, but in a way alternately intense, passionate, tumultuous, in the image of what was the temperament of the author of the Flowers of Evil, cursed poet par excellence, or, one could say: that an excellence in the ways of the out of the norm made curse. A multi-instrumentalist jazzman, Claude Evence can also be a singer. And when he sets Baudelaire's Les fleurs du mal to music, he makes an astonishing bouquet of melodies and songs that take the dandy poet where he was not expected.

Imaginez la musique de douze poèmes sublimes de Baudelaire, choisis parmi quelques centaines d’autres tout aussi fascinants. Une parure musicale pensée non pas de la manière douce ou mélancolique qui souvent habille les textes de nature poétique, mais d’une façon tour à tour intense, passionnée, tumultueuse, à l’image de ce qu’était le tempérament de l’auteur des Fleurs du Mal, poète maudit par excellence, ou, pourrait-on dire : qu’une excellence dans les voies du hors norme fit maudire. Jazzman multi-instrumentiste, Claude Evence peut aussi se faire chanteur. Et quand il met en musique Les fleurs du mal de Baudelaire, il en fait un étonnant bouquet de mélodies et de chansons qui emmènent le dandy poète là où on ne l’attendait pas.
