Joan of Arc - Jennifer Warnes

I have long adored this song by the late Leonard Cohen, and performed impecably by Jennifer Warnes.
This is the performance at Night of the Proms in Antwerp in 1992. I have edited the audio from the Famous Blue Raincoat 20th Anniversary edition.
Featured artists: Bass - Warren McCrae, Choir - Het West Brabants Operakoor & De Tweede Adem, Drums - Jack Bruno, Guitar - John Miles, Percussion - Deric Dyer, Piano - Oliver Marland.

Incroyable cette interprétation, Jennifer Warnes semble complètement habitée par cette chanson de Cohen, l'une de ses plus belles, et quelle voix !!!

This song hits me in the guts like a Flannery O’ Connor story.

Jennifer always makes sure she has the most magnificent sound production. Even live, she is sonically beautiful. Her voice is not marred by distortion or lacking it's subtle inflection.

A strange and mysterious coincidence; Antwerp, Belgium, the city of this performance, is where William Tyndale, little more than a hundred years after Joan of Arc was executed, was also arrested and later burned at the stake! In both cases, religious persecution factored into their deaths. Tyndale, of course, was the man who gave the west its first mass distributed publication of the Bible, in English.

Wow -- amazing song, and amazing singer. All I knew of Warnes was her Blue Raincoat album, but I see she has done much more. She certainly knows how to bring a song to a crescendo. Cohen's songs were so deep, and she drags all of that depth right out of the song and puts it into her voice. Magnificent.

She was in the '60s musical "Hair" and was featured on the late '60s Smothers Brothers Comedy Show named "Jennifer" . karl
