As the title of this concert, borrowed from Boris Vian, suggests, it's not just about lamenting the tragedy of death; It also invites us to explore, with Jean Ferrat (Alleluia), the pleasures of a village funeral (the main part of which takes place at the café counter), the setbacks of a surreal estate with Charles Trenet (L'Héritage infernal), and even - and this touches us particularly today - the beneficial effects of a good epidemic, with Aristide Bruant (V'là l'choléra qu'arrive).
In short, he sings with gusto, but also with emotion, of the thousand and one ways of leaving this world: with fanfare or with discretion.
Vincent Bouchot and Denis Chouillet perform a macabre and poetic repertoire with delight, delicacy and derision.
