Melissa Lesnie - Gershwin’s Sister

Discover Frances Gershwin (1895-1973), the forgotten sister of George and Ira. Vaudeville artist, singer, she offered an intimate look at her brothers' iconic songs ("The Man I Love", "Somebody Loves Me"), but also at forgotten gems, bringing to life an unknown repertoire.

In For George (1971), she sings with infinite tenderness and complicit humor, as if she were telling us about her brothers at home.

Melissa Lesnie and Mathieu Meyer, one of the great pianists of this repertoire, reinterpret these songs with emotion and precision. A tribute to Frances Gershwin, an artist in her own right.
