Château d'HĂSrouville, Paris. In the 1960s, composer Michel Magne transformed the Château d'HĂSrouville, an 18th-century country house north of Paris and former home of lovers George Sand and FrĂSdĂSric Chopin, into the first residential recording studio. In addition to its excellent facilities, the complex featured a swimming pool and a beautiful garden, allowing artists to stay for weeks or months at a time. From David Bowie and Iggy Pop to Pink Floyd and Chet Baker, countless stars recorded unforgettable music here until the studio closed in the 1980s. Three decades later, Château d'HĂSrouville has reopened its doors. This program follows American baritone Gregory Porter as he collaborates with the British electro-pop band Metronomy. The former American football player, who later dedicated himself entirely to music, gives an interview at HĂSrouville and performs songs including âDon't Loose Your Steamâ, âIn Fashionâ, and âSunnyâ. The British band Metronomy contributes songs such as âThe Lookâ, âNight Owlâ, and âMick Slowâ. Metronomy consists of Joseph Mount (drums), Oscar Cash (saxophone, keys), and Michael Lovett (keys). Gregory Porterâs own band consists of Lakecia Benjamin (saxophone), Chip Crawford (piano), Jahmal Nichols (bass guitar), and Emanuel Harrold (drums).
