ADÈLE CHARVET - OSEZ JOSÉPHINE
Adèle Charvet celebrates Joséphine Baker and 1926, the year Paris fell under her spell at the Folies Bergère — a vibrant blend of cabaret, chanson, and jazz.
Programme
Selections by Scotto, Lenoir, Monnot, Gershwin, Johnson, Miller, and Dylan, alongside traditional and sacred works — from Baker’s Paris to songs of faith and love.
Detailed programme to be announced
A century after her dazzling Paris debut, Joséphine Baker remains an icon of freedom, audacity, and humanity. Performer, Resistance hero, and civil rights activist, she transformed the stage into a platform for expression and equality.
With magnetic charm and emotional nuance, Adèle Charvet brings new life to Baker’s songs and the world they evoke — from J’ai deux amours to the rhythms of Harlem and the pulse of 1920s Paris. This performance paints a vivid portrait of a woman who reinvented everything — music, identity, and her own destiny — through themes that still feel powerfully relevant today.
