IN SUPPORT OF ‘MARCH OF THE EMPRESS’ SET FOR RELEASE
TODAY (APRIL 3) ON MILAN RECORDS
–Michael Gallucci, Cleveland Scene (March 29, 2007)
EMILIE SIMON–the young French music sensation who composed the critically acclaimed motion picture soundtrack for the original worldwide (except for the U.S. and U.K.) release of La Marche De L’Empereur (The March of The Penguins)–will return stateside for a special engagement at Joe’s Pub in New York City on Sunday, April 22. At this all-ages family matinee, presented with the Green Apple Music Festival, she’ll perform a rare solo set before and after a screening of the film (in English) featuring her original score. Her performance is in support of the U.S. release of March Of The Empress, her soundtrack for the film released on Milan Records today (April 3, 2007).
Simon’s plush, artful soundscapes which have yielded her significant praise and awards in her French homeland and acclaim across the rest of Europe and Japan are set to delight and inspire U.S. music devotees following her breathtaking album The Flower Book (Milan) consisting of material collected from her 2003 self-titled debut, 2006’s Végétal (which reaped a four-star review in Mojo) and highlights Emilie’s uniquely moving and inventive work from La Marche De L’Empereur.
Doors are at 11:00 a.m. $15 adults, $10 children under 12.
