Youn Sun Nah / Bojan Z
Jazz à Saint-Germain-des-Prés Festival Paris
Unique opening concert for the 23rd edition of the festival
Her vocal prowess and exceptional presence had literally captivated festival audiences in 2014 in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés church. Ten years on from a breathtaking international career, South Korean singer Youn Sun Nah has released her twelfth album, “Elles”, a piano-voice duo: a surprising anthology of covers, a tribute to the female singers she has always admired, from Nina Simone to Roberta Flack, via Björk and Edith Piaf, transcending eras and musical borders. Youn Sun Nah delivers a deeply moving rewriting of these songs, with the sensitivity of a goldsmith.
Her latest album is brought to the stage by one of France's finest pianists, Bojan Z, who has made a name for himself in numerous solo performances and with Michel Portal.
A high-profile surprise guest will accompany her on four tracks to open this 24th edition of the festival.
