Barbara Pravi sort son premier album

Listening, it's like a feature film that unfolds."I built this album as a story, everyone makes their own imagination, it's a path".The scenes parade between romantic impulses (the day gets up), quest for freedom (jump), assertiveness (the woman, to which my clumsy meets) responds).The trials of a life are always there.In his compositions before Eurovision, Barbara Pravi was already exposed, between domestic violence (Malamour) or abortion (flesh).Here, it is Alzheimer's disease that draws a poignant song (the refrain) and suggests an interpretation inhabited on stage.

"People will come to the concert and expect to be jostled.For the refrain, we will have to work on my emotions, so that I do not explode, because it touches something very sensitive, I speak of my grandmother, the number of children in the song corresponds to reality ", enlighten-Ar.

Personal instruments

The musical dressing turns out to be organic, with beautiful breaths of piano and strings."It is a reference to Prokofiev (major composer of the 20th century), the idea that all the instruments are like characters, on the refrain the piano is thus twisted at one point".

Arrangements that will take all their relief on stage, in an XXL tour which offers her a good wink with two dates in the Parisian room of the Trianon, where she was waitress in another life.

"This is where I learned to change a beer barrel, to make a mojito, where I overthrow my first order on a customer; I am still a friend with people who worked there".A slice of life that is found in "I use", one of his old songs, memory of blackened notebooks behind his bar, future songs."It was 10 years ago, right, I was 18 years old: go back to this room now, on stage, I almost see mystical (laughs)".
