Brel! le spectacle au Théâtre Maisonneuve

Thu 20 Apr 2023 • 08:00 pm Chanson francophone
Théâtre Maisonneuve - Montréal De 70,00 à 85,00 $
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Conçu et dirigé par le niçois Gil Marsalla de Directo Productions (Piaf ! le spectacleFormidable Aznavour, Et Maintenant), il nous offre maintenant Brel! Le spectacle en grande première à Montréal.

Ils sont nombreux à parler de lui comme d’une réincarnation. Sur scène, Olivier Laurent n’imite pas Brel, il est Brel, faisant revivre les textes de ses plus grandes chansons comme si sa vie en dépendait. Avec ce concert déjà joué une centaine de fois devant des publics en liesse ou émus aux larmes, à Paris, New York, Stockholm, Beyrouth, Londres, Dubaï et même Bruxelles, c’est par la voix, la rage, l’ironie et la tendresse que l’artiste rend cet hommage magistral au plus grand chanteur francophone que la Belgique ait connu.

Accompagné de 4 musiciens d’exception, il se donne à corps perdu pour épouser le rythme effréné de La Valse à mille temps, incarne avec fougue et élégance Ces gens-là, Les Vieux ou Les Bigotes. Olivier Laurent nous fait même redécouvrir Voir un ami pleurer issu de l’album Les Marquises, que Jacques Brel, emporté par la maladie, n’aura pas eu le temps de chanter sur scène. Une grande bouffée de poésie et une véritable performance. Frissons garantis!

Created and directed by Gil Marsalla of Directo Productions (Piaf! the show, Formidable Aznavour, Et Maintenant), he now offers us Brel, le spectacle! in its Montreal premiere.

Many are talking about him as if he has been brought back to life. On stage, Olivier Laurent does not imitate Brel, he isBrel, revisiting the lyrics of his greatest songs likehis life depended on it. With this concert already performed over a hundred times in front of audiences ecstatic or moved to tears, in Paris, New York, Stockholm, Beirut, London, Dubai and Bruxelles, it’s through his voice, passion, irony and sensitivity that the artist pays splendid tribute to the greatest French-language singer Belgium has ever known.

Accompanied by four exceptional musicians, he gives body and soul to capture the frenzied rhythm of La Valse à Mille temps, energetically and elegantly recreates Ces gens-làLes Vieux or The Quest. Olivier Laurent even makes us rediscover Voir un ami pleurer from the album Les Marquises that Jacques Brel, taken away by illness, did not have time to sing on stage. A great breath of poetry and a real performance. Thrills guaranteed!
