(en) Cléoma Falcon, née Breaux (1905 ou 27 mai 1906 à Crowley, Louisiane – 9 avril 1941), était une guitariste et chanteuse de musique cadienne. Cléoma, avec son mari Joseph Falcon, est connue pour avoir réalisé le premier enregistrement d'une chanson cadienne, Allons à Lafayette, en 27 avril 1928 à La Nouvelle-Orléans. Le 27 avril 1928, ils réalisent ensemble avec Allons à Lafayette le premier enregistrement de musique cadienne. Puis elle effectua des tournées à travers la Louisiane et le Texas. (fr) Cléoma Breaux (Crowley (Louisiana), 27 mei 1906 - Crowley, 9 april 1941) was een cajungitariste en -zangeres. Ze trouwde op 27 april 1932 met accordeonist Joe Falcon met wie ze op die dag precies vier jaar eerder de eerste cajunplaat, 'Allons à Lafayette', gemaakt had. Cléoma Breaux kwam uit een muzikale familie. Haar broers en zus speelden samen als de Breaux Frères: Amédé (accordeon), Ophé (gitaar) en zus Cléopha (viool). Ook Cléoma speelde af en toe in deze groep (ze is te horen op de opname 'Ma Blonde est Partie'), maar ze verliet de familiegroep na haar huwelijk met Joe Falcon in 1932 om met haar man platen te gaan maken. 'Allons à Lafayette' werd opgenomen in 1928 en werd een groot succes, waarna Falcon en Cléoma Breaux optraden in uitverkochte dancehalls in Louisiana en Texas. In 1928 en 1929 volgden nog verschillende opnamesessies. Tijdens de Grote Depressie werden geen opnamen gemaakt. In juli 1932 trouwden Falcon en Cléoma en in 1934, 1936 en 1937 werden opnames gemaakt. De opnames in op woensdag 15 december 1937 zouden de laatste voor Falcon en Cléoma zijn. In die tijd werd de country & western met viool (fiddle) populair en langzaam werd de muziek van Falcon (met de accordeon als belangrijkste instrument) als ouderwets beschouwd. Bovendien legde een verkeersongeluk in 1938 Cléoma's activiteiten stil. Ze werd in 1938 aangereden door een auto en enkele honderden meters meegesleurd; ze herstelde niet meer volledig van haar verwondingen. Ze overleed onverwacht op 9 april 1941. Haar man hertrouwde en trad met zijn Silver Bell String Band tot in de jaren zestig in dancehalls op; hij overleed op 19 november 1965. (nl) |
