CD | The Logical Consequence Of Things | Cesar Precio

Release date: 09/27/2024

Ten pop and orchestral songs, revealing a rich palette of sounds: brass, strings, keyboards, choirs, percussion, and even Martenot waves. Ten songs in French, which address contemporary societies with finesse, depth, and sometimes humor, like a panorama of the era. For while Cesar Precio draws his musical influence from the 60s and 70s, from Curtis Mayfield to Ennio Morricone, via Gil Scott-Heron and Shuggie Otis, his issues, however, are very much of our time. From chosen solitude to imposed social relations, from self-staging to letting go, from individualism to passionate love, his songs question, with poetry, our way of inhabiting the modern world. "I seek both the eternal and the ephemeral," said Georges Perec. This could also be Cesar Precio's motto.
