“In the United States, he would have been a hit”: Catherine Lara pays tribute to Daniel Lévi

Everyone agrees that the voice that has just died out was exceptional: Daniel Lévi bowed out on August 6 at the age of 60. All his friends, and all those who met him in general greet this powerful and sensitive artist, like the singer Catherine Lara who had spotted him long before the “10 commandments”.

Catherine Lara “For me, it’s one of the most beautiful voices in the world”

The memory of the voice of Daniel Lévi marked the 77-year-old singer, for whom “it’s one of the most beautiful voices in the world” which has just passed away. In the columns of the Parisian, Catherine Lara paid a vibrant tribute to the performer of “the desire to love” that she had spotted in the early 90s, as related Here, before he was chosen to play Moses in the musical of Elie Chouraki and Pascal Obispo. “I was at the table, having dinner and I hear this guy singing. A mind-blowing, unheard-of, unique voice, she confided to the Parisian. I tell him : ‘What the hell are you doing here? Come with me, I’ll take you!’ I suggested that he take part in the Sand et les Romantiques project, and he became Alfred de Musset on stage. And every time he sang, I had tears in my eyes”

For the diamond rocker, Daniel Levi could have known success in a whole different way and didn’t get the one he deserved”France is a literary country, not a country of musicians, we don’t have the ear. she continued. In the United States, with his voice, he would have been a hit like crazy. He could have sung me the phone book, I would have had chills. For me, it’s one of the most beautiful voices in the world. Like a Sinatra, a Stevie Wonder. He had an immense sensitivity and he sang with his heart, like no one else”.A voice that will remain in the hearts for a long time.
