Tous les visages de l'amour (She) de Charles Aznavour (1974)

Interprétée par/Performed by : Marvin Gayramon and Nycó Macá, accompanied by the Hydroproject Jazz Quartet

French and Filipino musicians came together last November 22 for the second edition of Les Jeudis culturels (Cultural Thursdays) to pay tribute to the legendary French artist Charles Aznavour, who passed away last October 1, 2018. He is remembered fondly for the poetry in the lyrics of his songs, his unique vibrato, his rich storytelling of emotions, and his magnetic stage presence. With a career spanning over 70 years, Aznavour has written more than 1,200 songs in French, English, Armenian, Spanish, and other languages, sold more than 180 million records, and starred in over 60 films.

Filipino singers Christine Carlos, Nycó Macá, and Marvin Gayramon, and French jazz artist Eric Soulard, accompanied by the Hydroproject Jazz Quartet, performed Aznavour’s most beloved chansons in English and in French, such as “La Bohème,” “Tous les visages du monde” (“She”), “Sur ma vie” (“On My Life”), “Je me voyais déjà” (“It Will Be My Day”), “Comme ils disent” (“As They Say”), and “For me, formidable.”

Les Jeudis culturels (Cultural Thursdays) is your monthly French cultural rendez-vous organized by the Embassy of France to the Philippines and the Alliance Française de Manille. Each month, a special cultural event will take place to celebrate the French “art de vivre” and highlight cultural collaborations between France and the Philippines through music, theater, dance, poetry, gastronomy, and various other art forms.
