Music Style
Ariane released her first album October 14. 2002, named « From darkness to Light ». It would be really hard to compare her music to another’s. Ariane mixes rich harmonies, techno beats, spoken words etc. Every song is completely different, but still you can recognize Ariane’s music. In concert, she delivers her songs, like worlds and intimate emotions, which are revealed with softness and strength. Violence, questions, love or a metaphoric story are told. Words sometimes harsh, sometimes subtle, picture clearly the thoughts of the author. She drops the veils, tells her experiences and her life, she brings us in her universe during one hour and a half of a timeless concert. |

In 1999, Ariane was accepted in William Riley’s studio (Celine Dion, Shakira, Liza Minelli’s coach) and decided to leave her comfortable life in Switzerland to make her performing dreams become reality in NY. From a well-known music teacher in Geneva (at the Conservatory), she has become one of many talented singer-songwriters in NY. Since then her arrival in September 2000, she has written recorded-arranged most of her songs and performed them throughout New York City. (Alphabet Lounge, Don’t tell Mama, Baggot Inn).

Press Reviews
Jeff Tsang, NY
Originally Inspired Fusion, Ariane's CD is a collection of very original, well-crafted and beautiful songs. It would be impossible to compare her music to another's or categorize it, as each song is a fusion of styles (techno beats, ethereal instrumentation, spoken word, etc.) and the album a mix of very different songs. Ariane's music is intensely personal. Inspired
Catherine Kelly, dramatic soprano:
“ …I have heard Ariane and I have seen her presence and grace on stage. I have also been impressed by the audience’s openhearted response to her…”
Mark Nicolson, tenor:
“…Ariane is a very unique writer and composer. The charm and grace she has on stage have impressed me…”
