Overview

Montmartre, around thirty unusual places, around twenty French songs from “Temps des Cerises to Temps des fleurs” performed a cappella by a professional singer and more than twice as many anecdotes linked to the singers and the history of the mound, here is the cocktail of the unusual “Montmartre in songs” circuit!

Along the typical alleys and the prettiest corners of the hill, some of which are little-known, far from the usual tourist circuits, Anne-Sophie invites you to experience an unforgettable immersion in the Montmartre of yesteryear.

At each stage of the walk, Anne-Sophie tells historical but also juicy anecdotes about the neighborhood and the lives of the singers. The comments are associated and punctuated with extracts from realistic French songs typical of Montmartre performed a cappella such as “La Bohème”, “L'Hymne à l'Amour”, “La Complainte de la Butte”, “La vie en rose”. ", "Under Paris Skies"…
