Jeanne Cherhal

Cherhal has become a force of contemporary French music, known for her enchanting live shows evoking French chansons and cabaret. Her quirky piano style and forays into the experimental, showcase what some listeners identify as the evident influence of Tori Amos or Bjork.

This concert, which has been conceived by Cherhal in collaboration with Thierry Frémaux, director of the Cannes Film Festival, to celebrate some of the most iconic moments in French cinema, will be a poetic evocation of cinema from a bygone era, a playlist of celebrated songs composed by the likes of Serge Gainsbourg (‘‘Sous le Soleil Exactement’’ for the film Anna), a song sung by Catherine Deneuve (‘‘Recette pour un cake d’amour’’ for the film Peau d’Âne), ‘‘Parle Plus Bas’’ by Dalida, ‘‘Pull Marine’’ by Isabelle Adjani, and so many more!

 

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

Thanks to Radisson RED Minneapolis Downtown for their support.
