Yvette Yvette Yvette

This "complete works" edition contains the three albums that Nathalie Joly released with her gifted performances of her own musical settings for the works of Yvette Guibert: "Je ne sais quoi" (2009), "En v'lÓ une drOle d'affaire" (2012) and "Chansons sans gene" (2016). Guibert was the muse of Belle Epoque Paris, and her texts have remained surprisingly modern thanks to their audacity and humour combined with the power of poetry. Guibert was known as the "Diseuse fin-de-siEcle" or "decadent story-teller" because of her habit of slipping speech into songs; singer/actress Nathalie Joly has astonishingly reinstated Guibert in France's national heritage, and given new substance and wit to the diseuse as a contemporary symbol. This set is a striking approach to the repertoire of a woman who, in a single lifetime, pioneered oratory, was a feminist before her time, corresponded with Freud, and also made films for such directors as Murnau, Autant-Lara or Guitry.
