Although Calogero sings in French, and it is not my first language, the fact that I was able to follow the narrative of every one of his songs was a sure sign that he is an incredible and expressive musician. The multi-instrumentalist put on a fantastic show, demonstrating the sheer extent of his talent, playing the bass, piano, and flute throughout his show.
Since emerging into the industry as a solo artist after the disbanding of his band, Calogero’s pop music has become incredible popular. He opened his show with a cover of the famous Paul McCartney song, Live and Let Die, which had everyone singing along straight away, and brought the house down. He then went on to play a wide selection of his tracks from Au Milieu Des Autres, his debut album, right up to the most recent work on Les Feux D’Artifice. It was wonderful to hear how his music and style have progressed and adapted since 1999.
His rich and distinct voice captivated the audience from the first note, and he had everyone on his side for the whole show. He was wonderful at interacting with everyone, and thanked us all for being there time and time again, which was a humbling touch to the show.
