Astor Piazzolla has been played so many times, that Louise Jallu prefers to escape from the original to trace her own originality from this furrow. The French artist chooses not to play the revival card, but breaks instead away from the original. This means : in the spirit of, never to the letter of Piazzolla. The more we immerse ourself in Piazzolla's music, the more we become aware that we must abandon the obvious and search for new spaces in his secret mechanism, other possible projections, even if it means sometimes getting lost in them, because deep down, we don't really know where they will lead us.
Louise Jallu says "If we claim to bring something new, we have to do something else. Take your music as if it were a standard and take it elsewhere. »
She takes a vivifying tack that is as scrupulous as it is critical, slowing the tempo, clearing new harmonic pathways, reformulating the melody.

The 28 years old French artist which started her music career very young, when she joined the Conservatoire in the north of Paris at the age of 5, has already proven her legitimacy as an accomplished musician in France.
