CHARLES AZNAVOUR

“Charles Aznavour was about to turn 38, and he gave an accomplished 22-song recital that asserted his originality and earned him the recognition of both the public and critics. The legend was beginning.” (Philippe Comoy) Recorded in 1962 — two years after his famous Alhambra recital, and four years before his first album made with an audience — this is the first live recording of Charles Aznavour released with modern sound engineering technology. You can hear every nuance in the rich palette of music of one of the most important figures to represent French song internationally. The Live in Paris collection by Michel Brillié allows listeners to hear previously-unreleased recordings (made at concerts and private- or radio-sessions) by the great 20th stars in jazz, rock & roll and song. These “live” takes, and the artists’ rapport with their audiences, gives these performances an additional soul and sensibility in counterpoint to the rigorous demands of studio recordings. Particular care was taken when restoring the sound of these tapes in order to meet modern standards while preserving the original colors of the period.
