Description
Que Reste t’il? – Charles Trenet’s beautiful chanson (translated as What remains?) is the title of this superb cabaret tour de force by Robyn Archer. Accompanied by Michael Morley (piano) and George Butrumlis (accordion), Ms Archer takes the audience on a highly emotional, highly satirical journey through French song; from rarely performed material from Paris in the 1880s, through each decade to the 1970s. With wonderful musicianship from this trio, Que Reste t’il is moving, uplifting, captivating, and often very funny.
