Léo Ferré : Où va cet univers ?

Annick Cisaruk and David Venitucci pay tribute to Léo Ferré, a major figure in French chanson, through an intimate show at Le Kibélé.

This show offers an exploration of the work of Léo Ferré, a poet and musician whose career spanned over forty years. Ferré, known for his deep voice and committed lyrics, left his mark on French chanson with titles such as « Avec le temps  », « C'est extra  » and « La Solitude  ». His repertoire, which blends poetry, anarchism, and melancholy, influenced numerous artists. The duo Annick Cisaruk and David Venitucci revisit this work with respect and sensitivity.

On stage, Annick Cisaruk, actress and singer, lends her voice to Ferré's words, accompanied by David Venitucci on accordion. This stripped-down formation highlights the power of the lyrics and the melodic richness of the compositions. Venitucci's arrangements offer a subtle reinterpretation, creating an atmosphere conducive to rediscovering these timeless songs. Cisaruk, through her interpretation, seeks to capture the essence of the poet, without imitation, but with a deep understanding of his universe.

This concert is aimed at both loyal fans of Léo Ferré and those wishing to discover his work in a new light. Le Kibélé, with its warm setting and proximity to the artists, offers an ideal backdrop for this performance. The atmosphere there is conducive to attentive listening and shared emotion, inviting the audience to immerse themselves in the artist's poetry and music.
