Assemblies which, like underground links, connect people to things: a boat, a trophy, a wooden seagull, an old photo on the…
Yes, it’s already been 20 years since Claude Nougaro, the Toulouse cantor, left us. Born into music to a baritone father at the Paris Opera and a mother who won first prize in piano at the National Conservatory of Music.

In order to reintroduce poetry and chance, Abergel has imagined…
