- Juliette Magnevasoa.
Juliette Magnevasoa comes from Madagascar or elsewhere, she was adopted as a child, and this story, like all fairy tales, opens onto the adventure of growing up.
Music comes naturally: it puts the pieces of the Juliette Magnevasoa jigsaw together. It joins her two lands and opens her up to a wider world.
When she plays, composes and writes, she is the fishbowl and the fish swimming in it.
Both inside and at a distance. The intimate, once worked through music, can exist outside, towards others.
- Natascha Rogers
Born in the Netherlands to a Dutch mother and a mysterious father with Amerindian origins, the young Natascha Rogers looked after her four brothers, moved around a lot and settled on the piano, a world of her own, an anchor, a landmark, when the horizon was too far off course. Breda, Belgium, California then Bordeaux... What never changes is the upright piano on which, scale after scale, Natascha Rogers develops her melodic gifts, repeating Chick Corea's Children's Songs or Yann Tiersen's oceanic repertoire.
Until one day, Natascha Rogers discovered a pair of congas, like an enigma to be deciphered, which her father had secretly left on the doorstep of her home. Sensitive to the ancestral call of the drums, she travelled the Black Atlantic for several years to be taught by the greatest Mandingo and Afro-Cuban master percussionists. From then on, Natascha Rogers thrived on a humble, collective and therapeutic approach to music, developing her rhythmic expertise tenfold as she explored grooves and paths. But how do you find your own? By emptying herself, by dwelling in the shadows, by listening to what rustles underground. Natascha Rogers knows instinctively that power and vulnerability go hand in hand, requiring the courage to be herself and to allow herself to show it.
With Onaida, Natascha Rogers has taken up the challenge of shedding her skin and exposing her true self, by returning to her first instrument. From ostinatos to incantations, Onaida unveils a highly personal poetic territory populated by rivers of piano and songs from the Earth, sustained by the ritual pulsations of the batá drums. In English, Spanish or Yoruba, she unfurls on the back of her keyboards as many intimate ballads as universal prayers, inspired in turn by the mythical snake that visits her in her dreams, the Amerindian poet Joy Harjo, the wild women of the American storyteller Clarissa Pinkola Estes and the spirits of Cuban santería.
