Brussels Jazz Orchestra feat. Camille Bertault - Gainsbourg (2022)

Lucien Ginsburg (1928-1991) started as a rebellious jazz musician and crooner in Paris nightclubs, evolving into the widely known performer and provocateur Serge Gainsbourg. His songs, permeated with humour, erotism, subversion and wordplay, have made him one of the most influential performers in the world. Brussels Jazz Orchestra will present a tribute to this icon of French music, together with the French singer Camille Bertault. Original songs by the mythical Gainsbourg served as the basis for new BJO arrangements.

The French singer Camille Bertault moves impressively and sensually over the musical playing field, between jazz, chanson and humour, making her the dream soloist to interpret Gainsbourg’s work with vocal virtuosity and enticing subtlety.
