Details: Product Description After 350 performances of "Starmania" in France, Belgium and Switzerland, Isabelle Boulay leaves the character of Marie-Jeanne. After more than 40,000 copies of the album of the television series Alys Roy and more than 30,000 copies of her first album "Fallait pas", Isabelle Boulay does it again with "Etats d'amour", a manifesto on love life. Written by Luc Plamondon, Roger Tabra, Zachary Richard, Zazie, Cébastien, Michel Barbeau on music by Richard Cocciante, France D'amour, Mario Peluso, this new album gives the full measure of Isabelle's talent. Written, composed, recorded around her voice, “Etats d'amour” opens wide the doors to the musical and personal universe of Isabelle Boulay. Arranged and directed by Olivier Bloch-Lainé (we owe him notably "Cap Enragé" by Zachary Richard) and Gérard Bikialo (director, notably by Francis Cabrel), "Etats d'amour" offers us 16 short stories including the classics "C' Was Winter" by Francis Cabrel, "The Hymn to the Beauty of the World" with a choir of forty children and a string quartet and "White as Snow". Amazon.ca The first album of the Gaspésienne with the hoarse and powerful voice, in 1996, had been received very coldly by the critics. But the winds have turned for Isabelle Boulay with States of Love, launched in 1998. Served by texts and music by artists who have proven themselves - Zachary Richard, Zazie, Luc Plamondon, Richard Cocciante, Roger Tabra and Mario Peluso -, the performer has found composers commensurate with his talent. States of Love contains several memorable tracks: "Le Saule", "I will forget you, I will forget you", "Tombée de toi"... The great strength of this disc lies in the effective and moving mix of pop , rock, country and folk, which suits the singer better than the radio cover she gave us for her first try. And even if she does not sign any text, we feel here the strong personality of this great interpreter. --Frederic Boudreault
