About this concert
In this musical evocation of a Parisian salon, singer Katarina Livljanić and pianist Danijel Detoni view the Middle Ages through the eyes of the belle époque. The central figure is the chanteuse Yvette Guilbert (1865-1944), who performed medieval songs in Parisian cafés. The sometimes frivolous, sometimes sensual music selection leads from Satie and Debussy to the wings of the famous Montmartre cabaret Le Chat Noir.
