Nina Simone

James Baldwin used to tell Nina Simone, “This is the world you have made for yourself, now you have to live in it.” Simone has created for herself a world of magnificent peaks. Often compared to Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf, Simone is known as one of the greatest singers of her generation. She has recorded forty-three albums, ranging from blues to jazz to folk, and her hits like “I Loves You, Porgy,” “My Baby Just Cares for Me,” “I Put a Spell on You,” and “Mississippi Goddam” have confirmed her as an enduring force in popular music. Her song “Young, Gifted, and Black” became the anthem for the Civil Rights Movement and thrust her beyond international stardom into the center of activism. But such worlds as Simone’s are not without their grim valleys: disastrous marriages, arrest and the threat of imprisonment, mental breakdown, poverty, and attempted suicide. She has survived these trials and continues to perform throughout Europe and the United States. With undiminished passion and in her unconquerable voice, this is Nina Simone’s powerful memoir of her tempestuous life.

Of all the major singers of the late 20th century, Nina Simone was one of the hardest to label. She recorded extensively in soul, jazz, and pop and was also comfortable with blues, gospel, and Broadway. She has subsequently been labelled as a soul singer in terms of emotion, rather than form. Her repertoire included jazz standards, gospel and spirituals, classical music, folk songs of diverse origin, blues, pop, songs from musicals and opera, African chants as well as her own compositions. Nina Simone Piano Songbook Volume 1 contains authentic piano and vocal transcriptions of 15 of her best-known songs, including Feeling Good, I Put a Spell On You, Sinnerman and My Baby Just Cares For Me, with guitar chord boxes.

Digital Sheet Music of Don't ExplainPerformed by: Nina Simone

De briljante zangeres Nina Simone werd ondanks haar grote talent gedwarsboomd door haar eigen innerlijke tegenstellingen. Op het podium voelde en gedroeg Simone zich vrij en ongeremd. Tegelijkertijd had ze veel moeite haar artistieke ambitie te verenigen met haar toewijding aan de politieke burgerrechtenstrijd. In combinatie met haar grillige temperament leidde dit tot destructieve relaties, niet alleen met haar fans, maar ook met haar geliefde en dochter.Alan Light schreef op basis van jarenlange diepgaande research deze definitieve biografie. Hij gebruikte onder meer niet eerder gepubliceerde opnames van interviews. En zo ontstaat het beeld van de soms verdrietige en vaak verbijsterende wirwar van Nina Simones ware leven, een beeld dat Simone zelfs in haar eigen autobiografie nooit heeft willen tonen.Het resultaat is een aangrijpend, eerlijk en fascinerend portret.
