Tony Award-winning French singer Yvonne Constant in Paris in the 60's and 70's at the Metropolitan Room, 34 West 22nd Street, is indeed an older woman, but she has the energy, verve and the body of a forty year old. It must be a secret known only to the French. Her alto voice still carries the tune, and her charisma pours out as she sings and tell tales. She delivers - in a collection of songs both familiar and new to me - with atmosphere, with a history of French songs by the best those decades offered, all delivered by a master of the medium. What a pleasure to spend an hour with this charming, talented, constantly entertaining performer. I wanted more!
She'll be at the same spot on June 6th and 7th at 7PM.
