pleased to bring back toour stage the talented musicians of SonoMusette! Led by Parisian born singerMimi Pirard, this exciting Sonoma County-based ensemble authentically recreatesthe moody, evocative sound of the Paris cafe scene of the mid 1900s, music madefamous by Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel, Charles Trenet, Django Reinhardt and othericonic performers of the era.
This music has retained it’s power to enchant and transportaudiences, and SonoMusette taps into that nostalgia with artistry in bothvocals and instrumentation.
SonoMusette’s renditions of these timeless French classicsprovide a freshness and excitement that is contemporary, yet faithful to thespirit and tradition of the original versions. Few singers are capable of doingjustice to Piaf and Brel, and even fewer can match Mimi Pirard’s mesmerizinginterpretation and delivery. The band features: Mimi Pirard – vocals; RobertLunceford – accordion; Jan Martinelli – piano & bass; Isaac Vandeveer –guitar & bass, and Richard Andrews – drums.
