Oh la la - Parisian music evening

At Gretton Village Hall, courtesy of Northants Touring Arts.
A selection of French and English songs - Piaf, Henri Salvador and others, plus some jazz. Instrumentalists - violin, guitar and double bass were excellent. Singer a bit too gimmicky, and not close enough to the originals for my taste, especially in Les Amants d'un Jour , La Vie en Rose.   Would have been good if she'd included Milord.

However, pleasant and entertaining evening, and very close at hand. CD is good.

A previous event of Estonian music was more exciting and involving - Ro:ToRo
