Search - Christine Andreas :: Piaf: No Regrets

Christine Andreas's Piaf: No Regrets is so many things at once: a collection of classic songs popularized by beloved French chanteuse Édith Piaf; a marvel of interpretation and reinvention by a Tony-nominated actress, whose deliveries overflow with deep feeling and passion; a dramatic demonstration of what made Piaf such a singular artist and cultural force; and a perfect pairing of singer and subject matter. Backed by a 32-piece orchestra, Andreas gives us 'the most thrilling rendition of La Vie en rose this side of Piaf,' (The New York Times) along with such signature tunes as 'Hymne à l'amour,' 'Autumn Leaves' and 'Non, je ne regrette rien,' sung in both French and English, in a program drawn from her hit one-woman show. Andreas's 'ravishing, semi-operatic voice, with its rapid vibrato, metallic edge...[and] snapping emotional electricity, has made her a potent interpreter of Piaf' (The New York Times) and the perfect guide to rediscovering the true brilliance of one of the 20th century's great artists.
