On The Table Read, “the best entertainment magazine in the UK“, the new single from French clarinetist Maëla Raoult is an eclectic and modern jazz interpretation of Over The Rainbow.
It is somewhere, over the rainbow that Maëla disarms us, makes us travel and dream with this new fiery title. The french clarinetist, native of Brittany, offers us an eclectic and modern interpretation of the legendary jazz standard.
After a first album, Avalon, entirely devoted to jazz and a second, Reflections patiently dedicated to contemporary music. The authentic artist, with multiple facets and various influences, back in Parisian studio, enchants and charms us with a magical and modern arrangement of the unmissable standard Over The Rainbow.
An unwavering and warm classical sound, mixed with an improvisation with Bebop influences and Latin preponderances of which she is a pioneer. A wonder of bright, expressive and free colors linked to a hunt of nostalgia, a captivating rhythmic play and redoubtable instrumental mastery on the clarinet as well as on the bass clarinet. With Maëla, jazz is reimagined, cheered up, decomplexed, illuminated.
Over the Rainbow is a song composed by Harold Arlen following the lyrics of Edgar Yipsel Harburg which embodies the hope and dream of a prosperous and joyful world filled with love and peace. It was the famous actress Judy Garland who interpreted it in the legendary film, the Wizard of Oz.
The codes are updated and the supreme traditions are inevitably upset with this new single, fit for the 21st century.
Born in Brest in 1990, Maëla obtained her Musical Diplomas at the Conservatories of Brest, Paris and Brussels. Passionate about chamber music, she plays in various formations at many events and festivals : Origami, Courant d’air (Brussels), Préludes à l’orchestre de Paris (salle Pleyel), Tout sauf Debussy (CRR Paris), Les Harmonies (Billiers), Concerts at the university campus of Paris.
Very implicated in the contemporary repertoire, she participates to the creation of Tocatina by Sina Fallazadeh, Heptagramme by Michel Lysight, Umbrales by Alex Nante, D’un Vanneur de Blé aux Vents by Suzanne Giraud, and is invited to play in various formations such as the ensemble Alternance, the ensemble Écoute (directed by Fernando Palomeque), the collective Parallèle 21.
She has the chance to play with concertists such as Patrick Langot, Frédéric Lagarde, Carmen and Ana Mainer. She deals with the symphonic repertoire in various formations: the Ensemble entre Sable et ciel, the Ostinato Orchestra, the Orchestre National de Lyon.
Curious about all musical worlds, she studied improvisation and jazz with great personalities of Parisian Jazz.
