Scott Fitzgerald pose le point final à « Gatsby Le Magnifique » non aux États-Unis mais sur la Côte d’Azur en 1924, parfumant son chef-d’œuvre d’élégance et de nostalgie alors que le ‘Jazz Age’ (expression qu’il consacre déjà dans un autre ouvrage deux ans plus tôt) venait de naître. Un siècle après sa publication, Mélissa Lesnie, chanteuse australienne au timbre velouté et au charme rétro, nous replonge dans cet univers bercé par les échos de ragtime, du hot jazz et de Tin Pan Alley. Avec ses complices, passionnés du jazz années 20, Mélissa ranime ce crépuscule doré avec les foxtrots, les charlestons et les blues des années folles, que l’on imagine bien avoir rythmé les soirées mondaines d’un certain Jay Gatsby.

Scott Fitzgerald wrote the final chapter of The Great Gatsby not in the United States but on the French Riviera in 1924, infusing his masterpiece with elegance and nostalgia as the Jazz Age (a term he had already coined in another work two years earlier) was just beginning. A century after its publication, Mélissa Lesnie, an Australian singer with a velvety voice and retro charm, takes us back to this world, cradled by the echoes of ragtime, hot jazz, and Tin Pan Alley. With her accomplices, who are passionate about 1920s jazz, Melissa revives this golden age with the foxtrots, Charleston dances, and blues of the Roaring Twenties, which we can easily imagine having set the tone for the social evenings of a certain Jay Gatsby.
