Edith Piaf and SonoMusette (Postponed)

Presented by SBL Entertainment at The Sofia Tsakopoulos Center for the Arts

NOTE: This event has been postponed.

From her beginnings as a child singing on the streets of Paris to becoming an international star, Edith Piaf is undoubtedly the voice of French music. Much of Piaf's music resonated with her own personal life as she specialized in Chanson and Torch Songs about love, loss, and sorrow. Belovedly known as "The Little Sparrow" Piaf ascended beyond the skies of Paris to world-wide fame through timeless classics such as "Padam," "Milord," "L'Accordéoniste," and "La Vie En Rose."

SonoMusette, featuring native Parisian singer Mimi Pirard, transports audiences back to mid-1900s Paris through the evocative songs of Edith Piaf. This is the Paris that still lives in memories and in imaginations. Mimi Pirard's powerful and emotional interpretations of these classic songs provide a freshness and excitement that is faithful to the spirit and tradition of the original versions. The formidable musicians of SonoMusette weave musette accordion, piano, guitar, upright bass, and drums to create a musical tapestry for these enchanting songs and melodies. The concert will also feature a set of music made famous by other iconic French performers of the era.

Featuring:
-Mimi Pirard: vocals
-Robert Lunceford: accordion
-Jan Martinelli: upright bass and piano
-Isaac Vandeveer: guitar and bass
-Richard Andrews: drums
