Lydie Auvray - "Salut! Et merci"

In the organizer's words:

Lydie Auvray, the "Grand Dame of the accordion", has released a total of 24 successful albums in 47 years during her impressive career. Now she is elegantly and light-footedly approaching her 50th stage anniversary.

"On this last tour, I want to play favorite pieces from all my creative phases, together with my musicians and for my audience. It's like a musical retrospective of my whole life."

The audience can once again witness her impressive versatility - from swinging musette and fiery tangos to personal chansons; from world music and jazzy sounds to the cinematic works of her fantastic trio, which trigger a veritable picture rush in the mind. Many of these pieces have long since achieved cult status among her fans.
