“Céline’s voice has changed enormously”
In an interview given to Parisianthe American filmmaker ensures that Celine Dion was more than anything about this performance for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games: “ Singing in Paris recharged her soul. (…) Finding herself at her peak, to sing again, was like a rebirth for Céline. It was a happy event that touched her enormously. This moment brought her back exactly where she wanted to be “. After spending so much time in the intimacy of Celine Dion, does Irene Taylor know more about her musical comeback? The director admits with emotion, “ Céline's voice has changed enormously and she wonders if her audience is ready to hear the new Céline “. If the singer of “I'm Alive” is ” in the studio regularly “, no one knows ” what will come out of it » : « Céline can no longer push her voice without putting her life in danger, but paradoxically, it is singing that keeps her alive ».
However, Celine Dion is aware of the love of the French public, she who has not sung in the language of Molière since the album “Encore un soir” in 2016. “ She wishes, and this is what I would also like, that there is more French in her new repertoire, to return to her roots » attests the director: “ In French, some of his songs are almost country. The work she does with Jean-Jacques Goldman is just amazing, you know “. A little sentence that made the journalist from Parisianthus asking him if Celine Dion et Jean-Jacques Goldman will indeed work together again. “ Don't make me say what I didn't say. What happens in the studio is very secret » she immediately dismisses with the back of her hand.
“Holding an entire concert seems premature”

She dreams of it and I wish it for her, but above all she must take care of herself » she explains, specifying that if she were to go back on stage, “ it probably won't be with the same directory » : « She admitted that she would no longer be able to put on a show like she did in the past. If she goes back on stage, and realizes that she is not in top form, she is now ready to say to her audience: “I am happy to sing for you, but I will not be able to can't hit all the notes today, so I'll let you sing some parts.” I am convinced that his audience loves him so much that after watching the documentary, they will be forgiving and ready to help him “. Patience, therefore!
