La French Touch - One4Review

Isabelle Georges – what talent and commanding stage presence! She is the complete performer. She can take songs from varied musical traditions, such as musicals, jazz and from her native France, and sing them with real depth and style. Compositions, for example, by Cole Porter, Stephen Sondheim and Jacques Brel reflect her range. Dressed in short dress and fishnet tights, she can dance with great expression. If this weren’t enough, she is also a moving and humorous raconteur. The songs she has chosen are highly personal reflecting childhood memories and love.   Joining her on stage are three superb musicians, Frederik Steenbrink on piano and vocals, Stephane Logerot, on bass, guitar and accordion, and Phillipe Dallais on drums. Stephane Logerot is the arranger and composer of one of the songs. I must confess to becoming a fan of Isabelle Georges when she was also accompanied by Frederik Steenbrink several years ago in her show ‘Judy and Me’ – her tribute to Judy Garland. This show with the addition of Stephane Logerot and Phillipe Dallais to me is a richer experience. This is enhanced by the fact that it is the marvelous Isabelle Georges in her own right we are enjoying. *****
