"Canada's Oracle Audio had a room that contained the Vienna Acoustics Klimt The Kiss speakers along with every product they make. The highlight, though, was seeing singer Anne Bisson there and hearing her new release, Portraits & Perfumes..." - www.soundstageglobal.com
2011's "Portraits & Perfumes" is an opus of jazz standards featuring expansive, original arrangements and covers, including a brilliant cover of "Us and Them" by Pink Floyd, stunning rendition of "With A Little Help From My Friends" by The Beatles, a calming transcription of "Call Me/You've Got A Friend" by Carole King, alluringly sweet adaptation of "The Nearness Of You" by Hoagy Carmichael, and many, many more!
Bisson is joined again by some of the best jazz musicians in Quebec and by Legendary producer, conductor, and arranger Guy St-Onge. Recorded at St-Onge's Reference Studio in St-Calixte, Quebec, Canada.
The Wafer USB Card is one of the thinnest USB Cards in the world at just 2.2mm thickness. USB cards slip neatly into your pocket, wallet or organizer and take up little space.
"...itÂ’s never too late to get to discover Anne Bisson. For her second album, this pianist, songwriter and singer brilliantly takes up the challenge with a rich and, it must be mentioned, clever selection of well-known songs, deeply personal compositions and Pop standards that have withstood the test of time. Never straying far from the Jazz idiom, which might possibly be the secret to her success, she starts off by offering us a nearly a cappella version of Pink FloydÂ’s Us and Them. She then revisits Spinning Wheels, With a Little Help From My Friends (The Beatles), In the Wee Small Hours, with its superb trumpet solo from Ron Di Lauro, and other selections. On the whole, Portraits and Perfumes, produced by keyboardist Guy St-Onge, is a bright new album that one can listen to from morning till night. Bravo!" - Christopher Rodriguez, Journal de Montreal, July 30, 2011
