Brazilian singer Mônica Passos today published a wonderful new album, "Lemniscate", taking very many standards of French music revisited in its way with its creativity and legendary fantasy. To discover absolutely. After its success, at countless concerts, for its new repertoire composed in collaboration with one of his old friends, the great percussionist Edmundo Carneiro, it will publish "Banzo", a smooth album which will be followed by a series of jazz festivals in France and abroad. In 2005 she was awarded the Django d'Or for "World Music". But if this girl wrapped long flowing gowns of fruit or flowers between two gestures, whistling between his fingers, dialogue with his audience and his musicians, speaks with angels, improvised songs of birds ... surprises, captivates, fascinates , quickly gained a large audience that has become faithful, his strong personality and talent also attracted jazz greats. Among them we must mention Emmanuel Bex, with whom she recorded "Organ Song" Naïve, and gave a series of many concert.

But Monica has not done surprising us nor seduce us, in close collaboration with Jean-Philippe Crespin, its artistic director and principal guitarist, she just concoct "Lemniscate" released today under the label Archieball . A new album in which not merely interpret his latest compositions, she revisits in his way, with his creativity and fantasy usual few DROPS gleaned from universal music. And to give a little more spice to this new creation, this citizen of the world, who now sings in French and English, has amplified its initial formation by enriching woodwinds, brass, violin and a harp. Thus, "In time" in featuring with Archie Shepp, "dead leaves" or "Aguas de Março (Waters of March)" took on an entirely different dimension. Magnificent.
