Juliette Gréco

What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani mentions Juliette Gréco mainly in connection with Miles Davis. Several times he describes her as one of the trumpeter's great loves, his "great Parisian love"12. This point comes up in different settings: a 2017 discussion with Aliocha Allard, a session of the Attelé(e)s de la confinitude, and then the Musicosophie series. In the session on sound ghettos, he also mentions the tribute she paid to Miles Davis after his death3. He then links her to "Les Feuilles mortes", which he says she created. This happens in the session on the jazz variation in Beethoven, where the song serves as a bridge between jazz and chanson4. In a 2023 session on worldliness in Clouscard, he returns to this link and speaks of a sad song that people adore5. He does not discuss her work at greater length. She appears instead as a figure connecting French chanson and jazz.
