Art/Literary - Journalism / Article on aspiring musician
French term or phrase: premières parties d'autres musiciens
An article on how an aspiring musician has broken away from classical music and tried to establish herself in contemporary genres.

"XX se professionnalise il y a 2 ans. Elle décide de vivre exclusivement de sa musique. Elle fait des télés, des premières parties d'autres musiciens. Elle intervient dans des concepts originaux. Aujourd'hui son pari est gagné. "

"She appears on TV shows, ??? " - I have no idea what is meant here.

Première partie
Le terme première partie se réfère généralement à tout artiste qui se produit à un concert avant le spectacle (ou l'artiste principal). Parfois, mais rarement, ils se produisent à nouveau à la fin du concert.

La première partie d'un concert sert à « chauffer » le public, ce qui le prépare à accueillir avec enthousiasme l'artiste principal.

Dans la musique rock, la première partie sera généralement un groupe en devenir avec une notoriété bien moindre que l'artiste principal. Dans des longues tournées de concerts, les premières parties peuvent varier.
