Manu Le Prince, bresilienne d'adoption et immense chanteuse de jazz, rend hommage a Johnny Alf, considere par certains comme le pere de la bossa nova et influence majeure de Jobim et Gilberto. Manu Le Prince qui a mis en lumiere les repertoires de monuments du jazz comme Cole Porter, Wayne Shorter, rend grâce ici a un artiste incontournable, injustement passe dans l'ombre. Elle a enregistre et produit cet album en 2013 a Rio, avec notamment Idriss Boudrioua, le saxophoniste et arrangeur de Johnny Alf sur trois decennies, et les plus grands musiciens bresiliens. La voix suave et jazzy de la chanteuse sublime le repertoire du compositeur carioca et rend justice a son oeuvre fondamentale. Her country of adoption is Brazil, and the immense jazz singer Manu Le Prince here pays homage to composer Johnny Alf, considered by some as the father of bossa nova and a major influence on Jobim and Gilberto. Manu has already dedicated recordings to the songs of jazz monuments like Cole Porter and Wayne Shorter; for this record she chose the unavoidable (and unfairly overlooked) songwriter Johnny Alf. She recorded and produced this tribute in 2013 in Rio, accompanied notably by Idriss Boudrioua, Alf's saxophonist and arranger for three decades, and some of Brazil's greatest musicians. Her suave, jazzy voice puts all her energy into the repertoire of the composer from Rio to finally do justice to his fundamental music.
