| a grace-jones-esque jessye norman sings la marseillaise - july 14, 1989 | August 27th, 2008 | ||
|
i remember this like it was yesterday. i was in europe for the first time in my (then) young life. this performance had the country waiting with baited breath for the voice of jessye norman. i bought the recording of this performance on a cassette single from the virgin records store on the champs-élysées. i’ve no idea where that tape is and i’ve been looking for a recording ever since. but youtube has saved the day! i can relive the moment of the purchase. norman singing “habanera” from the prelude to carmen was on the other side of the cassette. jessye norman’s face draped in that blue looks oh-so-grace-jones-esque. like this was the beginning of some underground indie film starring miss jones herself.here is a better quality video with the dramatic ending in full site, norman being carried with her long train of french flag behind her. http://www.fiatifta.org/cont/video_ina_03.aspx |
