Dominique A revisits his classic songs with an orchestra and a trio

Dominic A publish the album “Quelques lumières”. It is a double work in which he reviews his thirty years of career. In it he has the accompaniment of an orchestra of forty musicians and a trio.

With a first symphonic part, accompanied by orchestra musicians from the Geneva Chamber Orchestraand a second part in trio accompanied by Julien Noël (piano and keyboards) and Sebastien Boisseau (double bass), “Quelques lumières” reviews the extensive career of the French artist, delving into his repertoire and taking many of his great songs to places other than those to which we are accustomed.

It all started when he was invited to give some symphonic concerts with the Geneva Chamber Orchestra. The occasion was exceptional, so it was decided to record the repertoire and explore his music from a different perspective, equally intimate and intense.

On the album we can find, in addition to three unreleased pieces, some of his great classics such as “Le courage des oiseaux”, “Twenty Two Bar”, “Au revoir mon amour” and “Immortels” (whose original versions were already highly orchestrated). . And then others like “Rue des Marais”, “Vers le bleu” or “Corps de ferme à l’abandon”.
