Récital comique: J'ai mangé ma fourchette

It seems to start out as a perfectly serious recital, but very quickly the singer

breaks off, opens up, and confides in us. For this singer is, above all, a man of his

time—a man whose hilarious romantic journey we’ll follow as we dive into the

repertoire of French comedy songs, from the Roaring Twenties to the Left Bank cabarets

of the postwar era. His pianist, Christophe Manien, accompanies him and provides

his silent retorts.

This recital is a true music-hall spectacle that Gilles Bugeaud, with his deadpan humor, has crafted around songs composed by the greatest masters of the genre: Bourvil, Fernandel, the Frères Jacques, Boby Lapointe, and Jean Yanne, as well as a few rare gems waiting to be discovered!

Vocals: Gilles Bugeaud, Piano: Christophe Manien
