Songs de Paris – Francesca de Valence
The story is magic. Much-loved Australian artist Francesca de Valence set off on a solo voyage of discovery in 2017: a month in Paris, the city of light, the city of love. She took an empty notebook and an open heart and found her muse in both, connecting with her patriarchal French heritage and writing her show ‘Songs de Paris’.
After sell-out concerts in Australia in early 2018, she returned again for Paris in the springtime. Another season, another colour, another light, another musical commentary on the city that has stolen her heart. Dancing between Australia and Paris, ‘Songs de Paris’ continues to evolve.
