Songs of Jacques Brel
Mich en Scene
This group of three musicians and a singer perform the poetry of the famous Belgian Jacques Brel in the original French, except for a verse or two in English.  Seasons in the Sun, made famous by Terry Jacks, had most of its verses sung in English but the choruses in French
Micheline Van Hautem is accompanied by, Frederik Caelen on accordion and piano, Frank de Kleer on Spanish guitar and Bob Wisselink on double bass.
Micheline is obviously very passionate about Brel and this came across in her performance, she even managed to move herself to tears.  Everyone I heard express an opinion loved this show as did I.
