She hummed the airs of Vivaldi 5 years, fell into hard rock at age 15, lived experiences of several groups (Alpheratz, Thunder, Charline and the Fox) before falling in love with jazz. Few nibbles later, she started her own discography. First with the album "Solid" in 2005 and with "How are you? "In 2008. A travel trio on the rich and fertile lands of jazz, blues cottony plains and urban avenues of pop ... The new and third album that we now book "Topaz" is in the same spirit as the previous one, "spark more," she adds.

As the gemstone, which can shine in different colors, this new album is adorned with multiple musical tones. Beliefs attributed to the fifteenth century topaz faculty, among others, to awaken the wisdom and away the sadness and melancholy ... That's what Cecile Charbonnel done with this new album. Always at the service of the swing, emotion and musicality. Velvet jazz tempos felted. The desire to have fun and share the fun on disc and on stage. .
