Vanay, Laurence
La Petite Fenetre
First ever release of these late-70's recordings! Six-panel color insert with rare photos and Jacqueline's remarkable
story. Limited to 500 copies, housed in a deluxe tip-on jacket. Jacqueline Thibault (Laurence Vanay) often worked for
other artists at the legendary Château dHrouville studio as arranger, keyboardist, co-composer, and assistant sound
engineer. Between sessions she sometimes managed to record her own music. Several years after her two acknowledged
masterpieces, "Galaxies" and "Evening Colours," she was able to bring together the tracks for "La Petite Fenetre" (The
Little Window). As the 1970's ended, trouble with the Château finances meant that again it was impossible for her to
present her work to interested record labels. Instead, "I worked in another recording studio in Paris for fashionable
artists," she said, "and I managed after a time to resume and complete my unfinished songs." By that time, the French
record companies were not interested in instrumental music anymore. The recordings therefore found themselves asleep on
Parisian shelves, pending potential better days. Sublime compositions: unique, melancholic and very powerful.
