To celebrate this young French jazz singer's signing to Jazz Village, the label re-releases her first two albums - Portraits and I Feel So Good - under the collective title Double Rainbow. "Dark and yet luminous, nostalgic and joyful, Virginie Teychené's voice generates a feeling of elation. In a climate of exultation, the young singer and the musicians avoid the temptations of a grotesque imitation or on the other hand of artificial originality. So this is a Jazz record belonging to an untimely art form rarely given media coverage to. Here, vocal expression is deliberately cleared of all fioriture so that it can reach the essential and reveal the subtleties of the music. That is what seduces the most. With a disarming sobriety, tutelary Jazz figures are brought to mind (composers such as Billy Stayhorn, Charles Mingus and Antonio Carlos Jobin but also improvisators: Chet Baker, Eddie Jefferson, James Moody…) and as an indirect consequence, the sketch of a self-portrait stands out, the one of a Jazz singer." Jean-Claude Rocailleux (from the sleevenotes)
