The Belles Chansons Quartet

Be transported to the jazz and cabaret bars of Paris as the Belles Chansons quartet perform classic songs of Edith Piaf, Charles Trenet and Serge Gainsbourg, along with other treats from Boris Vian and Jean-Jacques Goldman just to name a few.

Fiona Thorn is one of Australia’s finest chanteuses. She fell in love with the French language at a young age and delights in sharing her favourite French musical gems. She has entranced audiences in Australia and throughout the world with thousands of YouTube downloads. She performed her Serge Gainsbourg show “He Drank Too Many Cigarettes” at the Sydney Opera House, The Famous Spiegeltent at the Melbourne Arts Centre and the French film festival. Her Boris Vian show “Fais-moi mal, Johnny” was nominated for a Melbourne Green Room Award and enjoyed multiple seasons, including an acclaimed season at the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.

Fiona interprets these timeless melodies with sublime accompaniment from Alexander Nettelbeck on piano, Les Gyori on violin and Ben Cripps on double bass to bring you a delightful evening of French song.
