With „In between“, is the 8th album that Isabelle Olivier presents: a milestone always so fine, joyful and playful.
Isabelle Olivier’s work has something totally unique. „In between“ offers an intimate, rich and very subtle sound exploration. Something more „penetrated“ than penetrating, in the image of this other figure of the landscape that is „the edge“: area of contact, which far from being a break, is a bond; which far from being a line is a thickness. The problem of the edge has always been of interest to landscapers. Today, it appears as a primordial societal element to live in a respectful and plural world.
Surrounded by exceptional young musicians, she takes you into a magnificent world of humanity. „I thought ‘In between’ as a form of an ‘artistic permaculture’. Each piece tells a story. Consistency is naturally required. The evidence of this synergy is my thought. I am passionate about the process. I look forward to sharing it with you!“
Jazzwoman, composer and harpist with a strong musical personality, Isabelle Olivier brings a wave of freshness and novelty to the international scene by imposing a surprising and lesser known instrument.
She has recorded 8 discs and has traveled to 22 countries to present her musical creations. For the past 5 years, she has split her time between France and the United States and is leading her project with brilliance and jubilation.
Solicited by many artists from all fields such as Agnès Varda or Adbellatif Kéchiche for cinema, Emilie Valantin or Michel Bruzat for theater, Maîtrise of Radio France for music or Trinity College of London for Master classes, she develops a very recognizable style from the first notes of this fascinating and rare instrument.
She is currently the ambassador of the new electro-acoustic harp of Salvi „Rainbow“ throughout the world. Laureate of Villa Le Nôtre in 2015 in Versailles, she is the first musician and composer rewarded by this foundation. In 2017, a new piece was commissioned by the Art Institute of Chicago for „In between Gauguin“ as a response to the exhibition „Gauguin the Alchemist“.
