French chansons – songs by Jacques Brel
Grown up in Paris, his heart beats for French chansons, especially for those by Jacques Brel.
In his interpretations, Morkerken shows his respect for Brel's work, but he also wants to go back to the chanson in its originality.
Accompanied by Trio Scho, with Gennadiy Desyatnyk (violin), Valery Khorishman (accordion), and Andreas Krumwiede (double bass), the singer takes you into the world of bistros, street cafes and saloons in his straight and passionate way.
