Festival international Nuits d’Afrique : Lorraine Klaasen au parterre du Quartier des spectacle

Fri 17 Jul 2026 • 08:15 pm Africa / Blues / Jazz
Parterre du Quartier des spectacles - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

« Elle sait tout faire » (The Gazette, 2024). Lorraine Klaasen fait partie de l’histoire de Nuits d’Afrique. Elle était déjà de l’événement au tout début et y revient comme une évidence. De la précieuse visite en cette 40e édition du Festival ! Elle tient son talent et son charisme de sa mère, la célèbre Thandie Klaasen. Son assurance a tout à voir avec les légendes qu’elle a côtoyées, comme Nelson Mandela ou Miriam Makeba. Sa carrière, saluée internationalement, elle ne la doit qu’à elle-même, à son travail, à son exigence et à sa volonté de permettre au public de ressentir chacune de ses paroles, même s’ils n’en connaissent pas la langue. Héritière de la tradition sud-africaine des townships, la grande dame à la voix chaleureuse, intemporelle, puissante et élégante, dont les nuances sont soulignées avec finesse par des musiciens investis, propose une infusion séduisante de marabi, de jazz, de blues, de soul et de rythmes zulu.

“She can do it all,” (The Gazette, 2024). Lorraine Klaasen is part of Nuit d’Afrique’s own story. She was there right from the start and it’s only natural that she is returning as a cherished guest for the Festival’s 40th edition! If she gets her talent and charisma from her mother, the renowned Thandie Klaasen, and her confidence from rubbing shoulders with such legends as Nelson Mandela and Miriam Makeba, Lorraine Klaasen’s internationally acclaimed career is wholly down to her hard work, high standards and determination to let the audience feel every word she sings—even if they don’t understand the language. This grande dame, with a warm, ageless, powerful and elegant voice, whose nuances are beautifully underscored by dedicated musicians, carries on traditions from South Africa’s townships, delivering a captivating blend of marabi, jazz, blues, soul and Zulu rhythms.

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
