Alain Wodrascka (Auteur), Maurane (Préface) / Né d'un père premier baryton à l'Opéra de Paris et d'une mère pianiste, Claude Nougaro, fils naturel de l'art lyrique, a vécu une enfance de cancre solitaire. Jeune journaliste, ami de Jacques Audiberti, il commence à écrire pour d'autres, puis déclame ses vers dans les cabarets avant d'oser les chanter à la fin des années cinquante. Il conjugue les talents de poète, vocaliste et musicien instinctif et s'entoure des plus grandes pointures du jazz (Daniel Humair, Michel Portal, Aldo Romano, Eddy Louiss, Maurice Vander, Toots Thielemans...). Pionnier du métissage, il mêle la poésie aux rythmes noirs: le jazz, la bossa-nova, les percussions africaines, le funk... Et cela sans jamais sacrifier aux modes, ce qui lui vaut quelques traversées du désert. Fruit de dix années d'amitié entre Nougaro et l'auteur, cette biographie, nourrie du témoignage des proches du chanteur, dévoile la part d'ombre, la sensibilité à fleur de peau d'un homme aussi tendre et attachant qu'imprévisible.

More sweet than my refrain is a tender miniature for three-part choir set to the text of a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The motet features on the new Ars Nova Copenhagen recording 'First Drop' (Canteloupe: CA21127).

Le livre Vocal réelle est la réponse à l'ouvrage de faux. C'est une alternative à la pléthore de volumes mal conçues, illisibles, inexacts, mal edited qui abondent sur le marché aujourd'hui. Le livre Vocal réelle est extrêmement précis, soignée et vise, avant tout, pour un usage pratique. Tous les efforts réalisés pour le rendre agréable à effectuer. La sélection de musiques pour ce volume met en évidence les principaux compositeurs jazz du passé des années 60, avec une attention particulière pour les années 1960 et 1970. Un certain nombre de chansons par Rogers
