At the course of the upcoming concert Patricia Kaas will perform renowned songs by Edith Piaf

Despite British and American predominance on the world music scene, some French artists still achieve international fame. One of these is Patricia Kaas. Over the last few years, each of her new albums and tours has been hailed as a major event.

A native of Forbach in Alsace, France, the youngest child of seven, she fully deserves her success. Because of her unique vocal timbre, of course, but also because she has managed to improve that timbre over the years with hard work and tenacity, as if cutting and polishing a rough diamond.

Although she shot to fame in 1987 with "Mademoiselle chante le blues" (Madam sings the blues), her career can be said to have started much earlier.
