of French song
If the message of
L'Opportuniste
has not aged, the orchestration of the original composition has been slightly revisited by Thomas Dutronc, as noted by
Le Figaro
on the day of the family duo's first concert in Courbevoie on April 12 .
The son of Françoise Hardy and Jacques Dutronc explained how he had contrived to musically reconcile the ancients and the moderns: “
It is first of all an immense pleasure to live this artistic adventure with my father.
I've been thinking about it for a long time.
For the mythical standards, whether on stage or in the studio, I had an idea in mind: to modernize them while keeping this sixties spirit.

The admirers of the young prince of gypsy jazz and the "gentleman burglar" of French song will therefore have the immense pleasure of listening soon to this new version of
L'Opportuniste
on Friday, April 22.
They also promised to take over
And me, and me, and me
which became, of course
, And us, and us, and us
