About the Album

Nuit Bleue De L'Automne . Lyrics :Jacques Roure et Iza Loris,Music Daniel Roure Daniel Roure’s continues to move in a jazz-minded direction on his 2016 single “Dans la Nuit Bleue.” In French, “Dans la Nuit Bleue” means “During the Blue Night.” The melody is clearly swing-flavored, and one hears Roure using Duke Ellington’s name, mentioning George Gershwin’s standard “Summertime” and using the English-language term “blue note.” “During the Blue Night” describes a female pianist who Roure encounters in a piano bar. She is playing instrumental versions of Ellington songs on an acoustic piano; Roure requests “Summertime,” saying, “Je le chanterai pour vous” (“I would sing it for you”). Notice that Roure uses the polite “vous” instead of “toi”.
