French-Hungarian singer-songwriter Izabella Caussanel’s debut album features her own songs alongside arrangements of French chansons and Hungarian folk songs. Her music blends avant-garde jazz with the worlds of chanson and folk music, giving rise to her own distinctive, contemporary sound. The album Regarde explores this multi-layered musical and cultural identity: delicately crafted, intimate songs alternate with bolder, freer improvisations, while the instrumentation sensitively follows the arc of the storytelling. The album simultaneously preserves classical elements and orientates towards new forms, creating a world where French lyricism, Hungarian folk music, and contemporary jazz resonate in harmony.
