After years with L’Impératrice, Flore Benguigui returns to her first love: jazz. She revisits the sounds she grew up with, from 1930s timbres to the analogue synth textures of the 1970s, seeking to challenge elitist perceptions and to build bridges across eras. Her jazz is rooted in tradition yet resolutely contemporary. Singer-composer Lea Maria Fries explores the shifting territories of modern jazz through improvisation, vocal research and experimental influences, shaping sensitive, adventurous music that pushes genre boundaries.
