Jun 20, 2012  If you love true stories and true stories of women who struggled all her young life and stories of rags to riches like that of Madamoiselle Coco Channel, then I highly recommend purchasing the DVD 'La Vie en Rose' movie in French with English subtitles AND the CD Soundtrack. Edith Piaf's voice is BEAUTIFUL, her story is tragic. BL drama list. Younger x Older; an excellent dramacd with as-loyal-as-a-dog uke-bodyguard coping with the loss of his. La vie en rose.

A LIVING ROSE

If you have even a modest love of French songs, or just the art of performance, of hearing and seeing a singer bring a lyric to vibrant life, do yourself a favor and go see this consummate artist in a sweet, masterful evening of Chanson.

Julia Migenes is one of those rare divas whose singing is superior, whose acting would pass the Stanislavsky test, and who looks like the part she’s playing. Her justly celebrated Carmen on film already proves these assertions — she sings, acts, and dances so supremely well in this, that any one of her triple threats would be worth the price of admission. The same could be said for her atonal Lulu in Berg’s titular opera (of which she gives us an amusing hint in this program), her Salome, danced with all the allure and precision of a prima ballerina, and so on and on through Puccini, musical comedy and multiple Grammy awards.

The voice has darker tones now than in her operatic days, and is consequently supremely suited to her choice of material for this program: the lovelorn streetwalker’s “Milord,” the wistful despair of Brel’s “Les Paumés du Petit Matin,” the playful reminiscences of his “Chansons des Vielles Amants” – all are given to us in French, but Migenes’s body language offers a kind of universal translation which gives clear and elegant meaning to every phrase. A cry of ire, a crooned declaration of love, a whispered regret — all are illuminated by her total immersion in the character singing the song.

She’s accompanied reliably by Victoria H. Kirsch, who has her own moment in the spot with the theme from A Man and a Woman, and the whole is directed with deceptive simplicity by acclaimed film director (and ex husband) Peter Medak — a grand piano and two chairs supply all the props Migenes needs to convey the emotion of each song.

The lobby poster labels this Migenes’s “farewell series of concert performances.” Unlike Melba, perhaps she means it, so hurry to the Odyssey Theatre.
