The National - Live At Montreux Jazz Festival
1
Twenty-five years after their debut, The National continues to improve year after year, whether on record or on stage. While they are among the most important indie bands of this century, they have perhaps never been more popular than they are today. Their recent collaborations with Taylor Swift, who cites them as her favorite group, or with Phoebe Bridgers have allowed them to reach new audiences. Last year was one of the most important for the Cincinnati group, which released two LPs in quick succession and was voted group of the year by Forbes newspaper. Their immaculate discography now includes ten albums and as many reinventions of their signature sound, imbued with sometimes raw, sometimes sophisticated arrangements, and the sensual baritone voice of Matt Berninger. The National will perform for the third time in Montreux, after a concert at Miles Davis Hall in 2008 and at the Montreux Jazz Café in 2012.

A Lot of Sorrow

May 05, 2013
Icelandic artist and musician Ragnar Kjartansson’s often intensely durational performance-based works manifest a rare synthesis of pathos and humor. A Lot of Sorrow is both a music video and an extended concert film, in which Brooklyn-based band the National performs its three-and-a-half minute ballad “Sorrow” on repeat for six hours. The band’s music and lyrics frequently conjure notions of romantic suffering and melancholy—themes common to Kjartansson’s emotive, theatrical work. As the hours pass and fatigue sets in, the musicians subtly alter their song; the original track is always recognizable but is also shown to be elastic and expressive rather than rigid. Kjartansson is sometimes visible in the role of roadie, offering water and food to the performers throughout the concert. Multiple camera angles grant the viewer access to both the perspective of the musicians and that of the audience, as the band and the crowd feed off each other’s energy with every repetition.

Taylor Swift interprète chacun des morceaux de son album "Folklore" à l'occasion d'un concert intimiste. Accompagnée de ses coproducteurs, Aaron Dessner (The National) et Jack Antonoff (Bleachers), mais également de Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), Taylor a enregistré cette séance filmée dans les mythiques studios Long Pond, dans le nord de l'État de New York, un cadre qui fait écho à la nature nostalgique et mélancolique de l'album. Entre deux interprétations, elle évoque avec ses collaborateurs le processus de création des morceaux et ce qui les a inspirés, tout en partageant les défis et les joies de la production à distance de cet album couronné de succès et salué par la critique.
