Croisette: Opérettes des Annees Folles – Orchestre National de Cannes, Benjamin Levy & soloists

The glamorous atmosphere of Cannes's famous palm-tree-lined boulevard, La Croisette, in the height of the 1920s and 30s serves as the inspiration for this fun-spirited album of opérettes by the Orchestre National de Cannes, Benjamin Levy, and eight of France's leading opera stars.

Unmistakeably French in style and spirit, these opérettes – 25 numbers from French musical comedies of the era – offer an effervescent musical cocktail: comic opera in the vein of Offenbach is blended with vaudeville sass and the irresistible rhythms of Jazz Age dances like the charleston, foxtrot, and tango. The recording features sopranos Patricia Petibon, Amel Brahim-Djelloul, and Marion Tassou; mezzo-soprano Pauline Sabatier; tenors Philippe Talbot and Rémy Mathieu; baritone Guillaume Andrieux; and bass-baritone Laurent Naouri.
