Sylvie Boisel to Bring Edith Piaf and Maurice Chevalier to the Met Room, 11/14
By: BWW News Desk
Sylvie Boisel brings life to Edith Piaf and Maurice Chevalier to the Metropolitan Room on Saturday, November 14th at 1 p.m.
Who knows better than a French chanteuse how to deliver the dreamy pleasures of Edith Piaf and Maurice Chevalier? Sylvie Boisel, a vocalist acclaimed for her tributes to Ms. Piaf is well known and respected in her native France and beyond. In Australia she was selected to sing Piaf's signature songs at the Film Festival of Sydney for the premiere of the film "La Vie En Rose" to an audience of over 1,500 people. She was delighted to perform as Edith Piaf for the Austrailian Prime Minister and her recordings and live performances can be heard on international radio.
Sylvie Boisel has perfected her tribute to Edith Piaf, which now also includes tender songs from the man who sang "Thank Heaven for Little Girls", Maurice Chevalier. When performed by Ms. Boisel in her powerfully poignant style, these are not just "oldies", they come alive with trembling passion!
You can experience her program in the traditional chanson style here in New York City, where she takes it back to the roots, remembering and honoring Piaf's simple origins -- now with the addition of touching and sentimental Maurice Chevalier classics.
