Description

Born in Philadelphua in 1915, and dead too early in New York in 1959, Billie Holiday became a legendary jazz singer, even mythical. Along with her voice even now managing to touch such a lot of people, we follow a reporter at the trail of the artist on behalf of a New York day-to-day. Beyond the public scandals that marred the life of the star (alcohol, drugs, violence…), he seeks to restore the truth, revisiting the memory of Billie. Through this investigation, Muñoz and Sampayo trace, during the undertones of racism, and within the wake of the blues, the slow go with the flow of a singer who expressed the deepest emotions in jazz. By across the world renowned Argentine artists, featuring Muñoz’ strikingly raw heavy blacks, this isn’t only a biography but a spell-binding art book tribute.
