Michel Berger Part 1
Michel Jean Hamburger (known by his stage name Michel Berger) is a French singer-pianist-composer. His career began slowly in the 1960s thanks to âSalut les copainsâ a radio variety show .
Despite its very small beginnings in the world of French song, Michel is present on the âPhoto du siĂšcle â
( at the end of the fourth row from the top of the photo with a tomato red sweater)
Struggling to find success, Michel wrote two albums for his muse and partner at the time; the singer VĂ©ronique Sanson (she owes him three of her greatest hits AND the start of her successful career)

Unfortunately for Michel, he unintentionally self-sabotages his relationship with Véronique⊠by taking her to see Stephen Stills (member of the group Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young) at the Olympia.
VĂ©ronique and Stefan will simply fall in love with each other! And in 1973, VĂ©ronique abandoned Michel without a word of farewell to go live in the United States with her paramour.
This brutal breakup will hurt and inspire Michel Berger who will give birth to an album entitled âCĆur brisĂ©â ( an album which does not exude the joy of living )
youtube
He is experiencing another long period of artistic desert, which did not prevent him from writing in 1974 one of the greatest songs in the repertoire of the singer Françoise Hardy :
youtube
Slowly Michel will end up getting back on track with his third and fourth albums which sell well enough to shed light on his musical identity in the eyes of the public
youtube
But what really changed his life was his meeting with his future wife and mother of his children, the singer France Gall. With whom he will work as a duo for years

Incorrect Quote #2
France Gall seeing her husband playing the piano and writing some text: Are you writing songs to VĂ©ronique Sanson again?
Michel Berger (at moment writing Serais-tu lĂ ?): Babou, it's not what you think!

CĂ©cile McLorin Salvant Album Review:Â MĂ©lusine
(Nonesuch)
BY JORDAN MAINZER
On her latest album MĂ©lusine, jazz vocalist CĂ©cile McLorin Salvant is, as always, up for something ambitious, new, and obscure. This time around, she toes the line between mythology and identity, using personal history and relationships to bring wondrous stories to the forefront. Consisting of five originals and nine interpretations, delivered in mostly French but a little Occitan, English, and Haitian Kreyol, MĂ©lusine is--per usual for Salvant--musically stunning, juxtaposing her generational vocal talents with a monumental array of players. That she manages to make disconnected influences and rhythms sing, and weave songs from the 12th century to a 70âČs Canadian rock musical all into the same character-based story, is all the more impressive.
Yes, the story of MĂ©lusine revolves around a woman who turns into a half-snake each Saturday because of a curse her mother put on her. You can choose to follow the story that Salvant provides, but the album has layers of rewards otherwise. Salvant blends cabaret jazz with a bossa nova lounge sway on an adaptation of Charles Trenetâs ïżœïżœLa route enchantĂ©eâ. She combines jazz and traditionally Haitian rhythms on her original âDoudouâ. She floats atop the slinky bass and pattering percussion of âFenestraâ, auto-tuning her voice at the moment you least expect it. Sonically, MĂ©lusine is anything but traditional; the two tracks that bookend the more classical title track consist of McLorinâs vocals over synth textures, an effective manifestation of the spirits she sings about.
McLorin clearly has a personal connection to the stories she tells here. Sheâs talked about the wide variety of music her parents exposed her to as a child growing up in Miami, her Haitian father and French mother playing everything from Haitian music and jazz to hip hop and classical. Delivered in Occitan, her version of Veronique Sansonâs âLe Temps Est Assassinâ, a duet with her life partner, pianist Sullivan Fortner, is an inspired version of the French pop standout. Dark piano ballad âPetite musique terrieneâ, from Canadian rock musical Starmania, is a song McLorin found out about from her mom. And then thereâs closer âDame Iseutâ, translated from Occitan into Haitian Kreyol with her father. These biographic touches are, like the context of the myth, just part of the story of yet another expert album from Salvant. That the record shares its gifts from multiple angles is a testament to the artist herself and how lucky we are to have her.

'MĂ©lusine' features a mix of five originals and interpretations of nine songs, dating as far back as the 12th century, mostly sung in French along with Occitan, English, and Haitian KreyĂČl, that tell the folk tale of MĂ©lusine, a woman who turns into a half-snake each Saturday after a childhood curse by her mother. MĂ©lusine agrees to marry Raymondin on the condition that he never see her on Saturdays. He agrees but is later convinced by his brother to break his promise, piercing his wifeâs door with a sword and finding her naked in the bath, half snake, half woman. When she catches him spying on her, she turns into a dragon and flies away, only to reappear every time one of her descendants is on their deathbed.
D'UN FEU SECRET
(Michel Lambert, air de cour, 1660)
D'un feu secret je me sens consumer
Sans pouvoir soulager le mal qui me possĂšde;
Je pourrois bien guérir si je cessois d'aymer,
Mais j'ayme mieux le mal que le remĂšde.
Quand je mourrois, pourroit-on me blasmer ?
Qui commence dâaymer , ne doit-il pas poursuivre ?
Quand on sçaura, Philis, que j'ay cessé d'aymer,
On saura bien que j'ay cessé de vivre.
///
By a secret a fire
I feel myself
I feel myself being consumed
Without being able to relieve the pain that possesses me
I could be cured
If I stopped loving
But I prefer the disease than the remedy
When I die, will they be able to blame me?
The one who begins to love, should he not pursue?
When they know, MĂ©lusine,
That I have ceased loving
They will surely know, that I have ceased living "
