Zaz, the internationally acclaimed, multi-million selling chanteuse takes on the most iconic songs about Paris with a little help from legendary producer Quincy Jones. This new studio album includes duets with Charles Aznavour, Nikki Yanofsky and Thomas Dutronc. Over the last four years, she has been one of France's top-selling artists worldwide. Fans in over 50 countries have snapped up over 3 million copies of her first two albums. She has enjoyed international success marked by many achievements, including a Felix (ADISQ) in Canada, a Victoire de la Musique Award in France and a European Border Breaker Award. "Paris Sera Toujours Paris", the first single from her forthcoming third album, emphasizes the link between the Paris of yesteryear and the same city of today.

I speak only a little French, but the infectious cheer in this album does not require translation. It is possible to hear the smile on her face while singing. It is a collection of covers of older French songs (with one original composition), the whole produced by Quincy Jones. The gradual transition from small ensemble sound in her earlier album "Zaz" to big band sound feels natural, and like Edith Piaf, to whom she is frequently compared, she handles the transition and material well. Also new in this album is the presence of several duets, with Thomas Dutronc, Charles Aznavour and Nikki Yanofsky. Zaz's voice and style is still present, however, and she has made excellent choices in her collaborators.

Some of these songs were written during the occupation of Paris by German forces during WWII, and some of the press surrounding this album has been negative for that reason, saying it minimizes the suffering of the time. My own take is that, with lines like "Plus on réduit son éclairage /Plus on voit briller son courage…Paris sera toujours Paris" (The more you subdue her lights/ The more you see her courage shine…Paris will always be Paris) it demonstrates the refusal of the Parisians to let the hardship keep them down.

It is exciting to watch a really talented artist develop her craft like this, and while the sound on this album is not the intimate, minimalist, street singer style that initially drew me to her music, it's still great listening.

Highly recommended.

Cet album est unique pour plusieurs raisons : Zaz éprise de Jazz, à été portée, pour la première fois de sa carrière, par un Big Band. « On ressent l’énergie de chaque musicien qui vous donne envie d’envoyer » nous dit-elle « c’est une musique exigeante le jazz, qui demande à être carrée, il faut manœuvrer avec subtilité au milieu de tous ces instruments, mais en même temps j’ai ressenti une grande liberté pour étirer ma voix, inventer, aller plus loin dans mon interprétation… » Unique aussi, par la façon dont elle a souhaité travailler en amont autour de ces monuments, pour la plupart, de la chanson française…car Zaz, la néo parisienne, qui se fout d’être à la mode, n’aime pas le « prêt à chanter », elle veut du sur mesure ! En fait, notre chanteuse a abordé ce projet comme si il s’agissait d’un album de compositions originales… Zaz, qui a la faculté d’ouvrir les portes de l’imagination aux autres, a convié ses musiciens qui l’accompagnent sur scène, ses fidèles, dont Ilan Abou, Thierry Faure, qui ont réalisé une grande partie de ce troisième album, à participer à une expérience sensitive débridée en studio, jouer live, toute une liste de chansons sur Paris…sans l’influence des versions originales. Laissant ainsi son intuition la guider sur chacun des titres, avec certes, en filigrane, le jazz, mais pas seulement…la dizaine de chansons retenue, va imprégner toute une palette de saveurs musicales qui pimentent si bien la voix de notre chanteuse d’expression libre depuis ses débuts…une pincée de gospel, Swing manouche, un zest de tango, de chanson slave… Vous l’aurez compris, notre héroïne ne laisse pas le hasard décider pour elle, sa rencontre avec l’artiste graphiste Mustapha Boutadjine à qui elle a demandé de réaliser la pochette de son album, en témoigne. Son portrait mosaïque fait de collages à partir de magazines people déchirés symbolise ce Paris qu’elle aime tant, à la fois multi culturel et avant-gardiste, qui bouge, se régénère, en permanence. Paris sera toujours Paris…et plus encore avec Zaz qui fédère autour de sa « Tour Eiffel » des invités prestigieux comme Charles Aznavour, mais également Nikki Yanofsky.
