Between gypsy joviality and pinch in the heart

Yvan Le Bolloc'h was well known for the duo he formed with Bruno Solo on television for the series " Caméra Café" broadcast on M6. It is less known that the actor has practiced since his adolescence on the guitar. He spent almost more time playing it than behind the cameras. Yet it was behind them, during the filming of Jean-Pierre Mocky's film The Volunteer, that his heartstrings were touched by… Flamenco. Since then, Yvan Le Bolloc'h & ma guitare's troupe has been mixing musical enthusiasmwith humour to play with the clichés surrounding the world of travellers .

Camille and Julie Bertholet are two sisters who both play violin, cello (Camille), piano and viola (Julie) brilliantly and from an early age. It is difficult to say, to hear them, that both are still preparing a diploma (that of the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel in Brussels, a master's degree at the Royal Conservatory for Camille, a bachelor's degree at the Haute École de musique de Genève for Julie).

 

We will no longer present Renaud, who returned a little over a year ago with the highly acclaimed album Toujours debout. The 65-year-old singer-songwriter has abandoned the boards of the Fête de l'Huma for 10 years and was necessarily expected. Especially since he came to finish his French tour despite the illness. An explanatory reason, no doubt, of the apparent fatigue of the artist, who did not detract from the beauty of his texts for which the public was grateful, sometimes singing in his place the serenade. It is certain that more than one felt at this moment a great pinch in the heart.
