- Summary:
- Less known than Brazil or the Cape Verde archipelago, Angola nevertheless occupies a decisive place within the Portuguese-speaking musical sphere through names as different as Bonga, the great voice of exile in the 70s, and Batida, the bubbling beatmaker of the Lisbon suburbs. Another reference from this part of southern Africa, Lúcia de Carvalho, for her part, multiplies cultural contributions since she grew up in Portugal before taking up residence in the east of France. Spotted within the group Som Brasil, the singer has since developed a daring solo career, marked by an emblematic stopover in Salvador de Bahia. Embodying the concept of the Black Atlantic dear to the British sociologist Paul Gilroy, Lúcia de Carvalho is filmed here during a recent edition of the Nancy Jazz Pulsations, on the Vosges stage of La Souris Verte. Endowed with an undeniable charisma, the interpreter reviews tracks from her latest album, the successful Pwanga, starting with the heady “Somahaka” and “Maria.” Supported by a complicit group, Lúcia de Carvalho delivers, in her wake, an imparable repertoire, strong in traditional and electric arrangements. One thinks of course of "Yallah," a (tropical) track revisited in duet with the Paulist composer Anna Tréa, and even of "Saeli," in which the guitar playing of Edouard Heilbronn weaves a truly bewitching musical line...
