French Chanson and Jazz
“Magdalena’s sultry singing transformed us back to the smoky cafés of Paris in the ‘60s. She has the vocal richness of Piaf.”
(Pat Sale, Dorset Twinning Association)

​
Chansons have become the ideal way for Magdalena to communicate her love of singing and French language culture.
Magdalena’s journey with chansons bigan in her childhood, when her family spent three years living in French-speaking Algeria. She was immersed in the language and was deeply touched by the songs she heard on the radio.
Later, she studied music to Master’s degree at university and was inspired by classes with the renowned soprano Evelyn Tubb and countertenor Kai Wessel.
​
Combining her singing with her lifelong study the French language and culture, chansons have become the ideal way for her to communicate her love of both.
​
Philip Clouts is the perfect accompanist, being a composer and pianist both in his own quartet and also in 'Zubop' – "that spirited, hugely enjoyable jazz outfit, which takes the whole world of music as its home territory" (The Observer).
