Impressive and gracious at the same time, American Kaylene Peoples has seduced audiences with her talents as a singer and flautist. As part of the 27th International Madajazzcar Festival, she hosted a singing and flute workshop at the Ivan-toeran’ny kolontsaina malagasy (IKM) in Antsahavola yesterday.
Kaylene Peoples is a remarkable singer who interprets, with ease, songs composed of a range of five different octaves. The workshop was therefore rich in various tips and techniques for singing and playing the flute. Indeed, the American singer is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger and conductor. She is one of the artists who arranged songs for the soundtracks of American films, such as “American Pie”, “Serendipity”, “Ruby” …
One of her most influential orinal songs is “Do you remember,” which was among the Top 100 chart, explained one of the festival’s organizers. Her other song “Giant Steps” was voted best jazz music at the Akademia Music Award December 2015. She will be back on the Malagasy stage this day at the Carlton and will be accompanied by Bunny Brunel, SAnda Ranaivosoa, Njaka Rakotonirainy and Bolo Rakoto David.
