Foyer Jazz: Becca Wilkins' rêverie
Foyer Jazz: Becca Wilkins' rêveriePresented by Saffron Hall
Part of Foyer Clubs
Becca Wilkins’ latest project rêverie is a collection of reworked French Chanson set within the style of a contemporary drummer-less jazz quartet.
Inspired by projects such as Lucia Cadotch’s ‘speak low’, this unique line up of vocals, accordion, piano and acoustic bass evokes an alternate reality of the chanson made popular by Jacques Brel, Yves Montand and Edith Piaf. Featuring classics such as Sous le Ciel de Paris and La Bohème, Becca brings her Francophilia into sharp focus with this music. The collection exemplifies her skills as a song interpreter, band leader and improviser with this music that is powerfully communicative, brooding and mysterious, vulnerable and atmospheric.
