THE AMAZING KEYSTONE BIG BAND
2018
The seventeen musicians of the Amazing Keystone Big Band, winners of a Victoire du Jazz award in the category Band of the Year in 2018, continue their adventure of helping young audiences and adults discover jazz in all its forms through a new show: La voix d’Ella, a musical tale created entirely around the legendary personality of the singer Ella Fitzgerald.
AN AUDIOBOOK, A RECORD, A SHOW.
To create this musical tale, the Amazing Keystone Big Band has arranged Ella Fitzgerald’s most iconic songs for big jazz big band.
At the head of their band, trumpet player David Enhco, saxophonist Jon Boutellier, trombonist Bastien Ballaz, and pianist Fred Nardin offer three ways to discover this new musical tale, La Voix d'Ella: a record on the label Nome, an audio book published by Gautier-Languereau, and a show in Paris on March 17, 2019, at Salle Pleyel.
A powerful and brilliant musical tale comes to life with the writing of Philippe Lechermeier, the brushes of Amanda Minazio, the notes of the Amazing Keystone Big Band, and the voices of Vincent Dedienne and Célia Kameni.
