Following the 2011 release of her self-titled album of original compositions and the 2015 5-disc reissue box set Les introuvables, Marie Denise Pelletier is embarking on the production of an album and a stage show in memory of the great Claude Léveillée.
Léveillée, entre Claude et moi was produced by Marc Pérusse (Fiori, Luc De Larochellière) and the show is directed by Serge Postigo (Mary Poppins). The album explores the singer's relationship with the artist, having been a fan of the late songwriter since childhood. Both the album and the show, set in the atmosphere of the 60s, will include performances of several hits (Les vieux pianos, Emmène-moi au bout du monde, Ne dis rien) as well as lesser-known tracks, all under the musical direction of her close accomplice and Léveillée enthusiast, pianist Benoît Sarrasin.
Through the creation of this concept album and ambitious show in memory of Claude Léveillée, Marie Denise Pelletier has found a way to do things differently, by creating both simultaneously to offer a personal, cohesive, and relevant work that is sure to delight both her audience and fans of Léveillée. The talent and reputation of the producer and director add an extra layer of interest to the production.
