Salvant and the ensemble perform timeless songs newly arranged by composer and bandleader Darcy James Argue. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalvant, who has performed with orchestras regularly over the last decade-and-a-half, had intended to make an album with one sooner in her career, but logistics and her abundant creative ideas led to other new projects intervening. Having finally found time to make this album, \u003cem\u003eWith Every Breath I Take \u003c\/em\u003eis a different sort of record than it might have been even ten years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“It is a rare opportunity to be able to make an album at this scale, which has been a dream of mine for many years,” Salvant says. “Darcy James Argue wrote stunning arrangements and the Metropole Orkest, conducted by the extraordinary Jules Buckley, gave these stories a cinematic dimension. We overcame quite a few obstacles to even get into the recording studio for this project; it took almost four years for us to do so, and I am so incredibly proud to share it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“I did not choose these songs because they are beautiful, but because they are crucial to me,” she adds. \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCécile McLorin Salvant, a 2020 MacArthur Fellow and three-time Grammy Award winner, is a singer and composer bringing historical perspective, a renewed sense of drama, and an enlightened musical understanding to both jazz standards and her own original compositions.
