A tribute to this great figure of American jazz initiated by ASINA who invites us to dive into her world by revisiting the arrangements of the live performances that marked her career.
Born Anita Belle Colton in October 1919, this jazz giant is better known under the name of Anita O'Day. A fabulous voice supported by a real musician's technique? A mischievous and indomitable character?
A crazy class that she embodied down to the tips of her long white gloves? Until her death in 2006 at the age of 87, Anita O'Day was a survivor of swing and certainly one of the greatest jazz singers, in the eternal shadow of the three greats: Billie, Ella and Sarah, whom she did more than just speak informally with...
But Anita O'Day also had a journey strewn with pitfalls: that of a white singer in the land of African-American jazz, that of a woman of character, independent but also fragile, who flirted with death twice rather than once and frequented prison on a regular basis...
It is no coincidence, therefore, that her autobiography is entitled "High Times, Hard Times". Ups and downs... Because like her vocal prowess, Anita O'Day's life was a huge roller coaster, with sometimes dizzying loops.
