BISTRO MOUSTACHEBistro Moustache Brings Musique française, from Paris to the San Francisco bay area. You'll be transported to an evening of French Café music straight from the terrace of a Paris Bistro, a Guinguette on the Marne river or a Bal Musette on the banks of the Seine. Just as if Charles Trenet, Jacques Brel, Yves Montant, Georges Brassens, Serge Gainsbourg, Tino Rossi, Edith Piaf, Boris Vian, Django Reinhardt, Gus Viseur and Jo Privat were (re) united together for a magic evening.
The repertoire goes from the classics (Les Feuilles Mortes, C'est Si Bon, Ménilmontant, J'Attendrai, La Foule, Sous Le Ciel De Paris) to more modern (Il Est Cinq Heures Paris S'Éveille, Le Poinçonneur Des Lilas, Vesoul), and even Polkas, Tangos, Auvergne Bourrées and Celtic folk. |
