Bach Dancing & Dynamite Society Presents: CYRILLE AIMÉE DUO
Cyrille Aimée is one of today’s most distinctive jazz vocalists, winner of both the Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition and the Montreux Jazz Festival Vocal Competition, and a finalist in the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Vocal Competition. Raised by a French father and Dominican mother in Samois sur Seine, Django Reinhardt’s final home, she absorbed Roma jazz influences early on, singing on street corners during travels across Europe.
Her move to New York propelled her onto the international stage. She performed and recorded with Roy Hargrove, impressed the notoriously tough legendary Harlem Apollo audience, and was invited by Stephen Sondheim to appear in a City Centre tribute with Wynton Marsalis. Her Sondheim album Move On earned the composer’s praise, and her version of “Marry Me a Little” received a Grammy nomination.
Now based in New Orleans after a creatively transformative period in Costa Rica and new motherhood, Aimée continues to expand her musical world. Her latest release on Whirlwind Recordings, à Fleur de Peau, created with producer Jake Sherman, showcases her signature blend of jazz sophistication, global influences, and irresistible rhythmic energy.
Cyrille Aimée – Vocals; Mathis Picard – Piano
