Brel ! Le Spectacle - Tournée

BREL! LE SPECTACLE

Conceived and directed by Gil Marsalla, and performed by Belgian Olivier Laurent, this tribute show to the great Jacques Brel has already captivated audiences worldwide. Many speak of him as a reincarnation. On stage, Olivier Laurent doesn't imitate Brel, he IS Brel, bringing the lyrics of his greatest songs to life as if his own depended on it. With this concert, already performed a hundred times to jubilant or tearful audiences in Paris, Montreal, New York, Stockholm, Beirut, London, and Dubai, the artist delivers this masterful tribute to the greatest French-speaking singer Belgium has ever known through his voice, his rage, his irony, and his tenderness. Accompanied by 4 exceptional musicians, he throws himself wholeheartedly into embracing the frantic rhythm of La Valse À Mille Temps, passionately and elegantly embodying Ces Gens-Là, Les Vieux, or Les Bigotes. And he even allows us to (re)discover Voir Un Ami Pleurer from the album Les Marquises, which Jacques Brel, taken by illness, never had the chance to sing on stage. A great breath of poetry and a true performance. Goosebumps guaranteed!
