Guillaume Latil , violoncelle

Sélène Saint-Aimé is a captivating new figure on the contemporary jazz scene, and a fervent proponent of a music that is fiercely mixed. In this concert, she explores the traditional repertoire of Louisiana, the West Indies and Reunion Island, under the banner of Creolité.

A recent arrival on the musical scene, Sélène Saint-Aimé – singer, bassist and composer – has already captivated many ears. Self-defined as ‘Afro-descendant’, born of a Martinican father and a Franco-Ivorian mother, she has developed a cosmopolitan musical identity, marked as much by her roots as by her travels. The way she plays it, with its blend of swing, jazz – her preferred idiom – is adorned with heady Caribbean inflections and tends towards a world without frontiers. His first two albums, Mare Undarum (2020) and Potomitan (2022), reveal an original universe full of poetic vibrations. Revisiting songs from Louisiana, the West Indies and Réunion, this concert takes her even deeper into the question of creolité.
