Frank Cools en Florian De Schepper
2026 marks 25 years since the death of French world star Gilbert Bécaud. What’s more, he would have turned 100 in 2027. If thát isn’t a reason to celebrate his chansons! They are só rich, só powerful, só timeless.
Nathalie; of course! Et maintenant; oh yeeeeeeeees! L’important c’est la rose, C’est en septembre, Je reviens te chercher… Bécaud, ‘Monsieur 100.000 Volts’, sang these songs with boundless energy. His passion for women, cigarettes and whisky was legendary.
Frank Sinatra, Nina Simone, Bob Dylan, Marlene Dietrich; they have all sung Bécaud. And now so do Frank Cools and Florian De Schepper, who opt for the purest form. With just a voice and a guitar, BÉCAUD, like their acclaimed theatre concert AZNAVOUR, becomes an evening full of beauty, recognition and surprise.
