Raoelison, Noella
Nostalgie
Nostalgia is Noëlla Raoelison's third album, after "Baobab" and "Une île". It's a homecoming for Noëlla who sings here in her native language, "sakalava", a hard-hitting dialect from the south west of Madagascar. Noëlla has the will to convey strong messages in her compositions. These songs, inspired by his experience and representative of a world in motion, speak to us of uprooting, exile, ecology, corruption, this nostalgia that one feels, far from one's country. In addition to the Malagasy and African influences proposed by Noëlla, her compositions, entrusted to the arranger Franck Tchalian, are enriched with harmonies imbued with jazz, are tinged with soul or blues or flower with electro.
