«Esprit français»

Om dette stedet

«Esprit française» – a hint of France hangs over the Rhine-Inseli on a summer night. With music from different eras to the great chansons of Édith Piaf and Michel Legrand, an atmospheric evening unfolds. Avi Avital delights with his mandolin through rich, intense sound and brings France’s musical diversity to life anew.
