NEW YORK - PREMIERE
Caroline NIN
A BILINGUAL TRIBUTE TO EDITH PIAF
METROPOLITAN ROOM NYC – OCTOBER 29+30 - 9.30pm
Fresh from a phenomenally successful two-year run in her home town of Paris, French chanteuse Caroline Nin is ready to thrill New York audiences with her globally-acclaimed, bilingual tribute to France’s most beloved musical icon, Edith Piaf.
For nearly a decade the Parisian cabaret star has enthralled and uplifted audiences around the world at Sydney’s prestigious Opera House to London’s Royal Festival Hall, the Edinburgh Festival and theaters throughout Europe with her mesmerizing interpretation – rather than impersonation – of Piaf’s œuvre.
Miss Nin’s seductively smoky, jazz-inflected voice transports audiences to the streets of old Paris as she weaves stories in English effortlessly between spirited singing of the world-renowned anthems such as La Vie en Rose, Padam, Je Ne Regrette Rien and many more that made Piaf a darling of the world’s stage.
Described as a « classic femme fatale » with an electric stage presence, Miss Nin’s « HYMNE A PIAF » was awarded a prestigious 2012 Helpmann Award nomination for Best Cabaret Performer. She was also honoured with the Best Female Jazz Vocalist Award in France.
After conquering Paris, she is thrilled to finally present « Hymne a Piaf » at the prestigious Metropolitan Room in New York for the first time, paying tribute to France’s Little Sparrow during this, the 100th anniversary year of her birth.
« I’m so honoured to be presenting HYMNE A PIAF in New York City. Growing up with Piaf, nothing could make me prouder than to perform and share the music and life of the most famous of all French chanteuse in a city where she, herself, performed, lived and loved for many years. » says Miss Nin.
