For her new, sixth album, Barbara Carlotti paid tribute to Corsica, where her father’s family hails from, by covering and adapting songs she has listened to and enjoyed since childhood.
Among the eleven songs and covers she has selected, the hit created by Tino Rossi in 1934, “Corse, île d’amour”, gives the album its name. But it’s the entire repertoire of Corsican variété from the 60s and 70s, the songs of an island to which she is deeply attached, that Barbara Carlotti pays tribute to in this album.
The concert will feature songs from the new album, as well as from her two previous albums, Magnétique and L’amour, l’argent, le vent. For this exceptional concert at the Villa Médicis, the artist will be accompanied by Benjamin Esdraffo on keyboard and Pierre Leroux on guitar.

These are just a few of the islands in the real world between which winds a voice that sounds like water, alternately clear and troubled, lively or almost asleep, totally hypnotic. A voice sometimes mixed, in duet, with those of great figures of French pop such as Philippe Katerine, Dominique A, Bertrand Belin, Juliette Armanet, Bertrand Burgalat…
