My French Standards Songbook, the third such solo piano record in his repertoire, finds Léogé painting impressionist soundscapes via French standards. Among others, Léogé offers a thoughtful interpretation of 'La Vie En Rose,' a frisky go-round at 'C'est Si Bon' ('It's So Good') and a heartened plea with 'Ne Me Quitte pas' ('Do Not Leave Me').
The theme of this album is based on an original reading of some unforgettable French songs which were taken up by jazz musicians or other crooners to the point of appearing in the great universal repertoire and becoming what we call standards.
Philippe Léogé’s piano-ship is sailing on the ocean of impressionism, dreaming of inner trips between jazz and classical music. Here, each track is a painting influenced by a poetic memory of these eternal song-lyrics, with improvisation as a canvas.
„An excellent soloist who has a sense of balance for soundscapes and colors.“ (Jean Wagner, Télérama)
