About the album

Her first inspiration was Charlotte Bienaimé's ‘Un podcast à soi’, which discusses fundament- tal questions of gender and feminism. "More often than not in history, 'Anonymous' was a woman" - this sentence by Virginia Woolf, epigraph to the famous radio podcast, has found an echo in Julie Campiche. Giving a voice to women, but in a distinct way: this is the common thread running through the album. Rather than a feminist manifesto, UNSPOKEN seeks to celebrate feminine strength, nourished by commitment and openness. She addresses the fragile balance of women in shadow and light of society.

“Female strength is what makes the world go round. 80% of household chores are done by women for free and anonymously. I want to celebrate exceptional women, but also give a place to this everyday strength”. Among the figures who inspire her and whose voices and actions she evokes, are the Swiss artist and prostitute Grisélidis Réal, or Las Patronas, the Mexican guardian angels who throw food and water to those who have decided to migrate and illegally board freight trains bound for the USA.

Julie Campiche (harp)

Classically trained, Julie Campiche discovered jazz during a big band performance twenty years ago. Fascinated by it, she decided to dive into this new world. She was the first harpist to earn a master's degree in jazz composition and performance at the Haute Ecole de Musi- que de Lausanne (HEMU). She has enjoyed a prolific career, making a name for herself on the international scene, where she tours regularly. She has received numerous prizes and awards, including the Swiss Music Prize in 2025 and a multi-year grant from the city of Geneva for the period 2024-2027. Her quartet's latest album was released on the presti- gious German label Enja. The atypical nature of her career, the choice of a rare...

Her quartet's latest album was released on the presti- gious German label Enja. The atypical nature of her career, the choice of a rare instrument used in unusual registers, make her a unique figure, an inspiring woman who sees her art only in terms of commitment. “I can't see art as being disconnected from society. In my approach, I seek to extract myself from the particular case to touch on the universal, to connect and encourage people to invest themselves in and for this world of ours”.
