Joe Dassin is as much a French icon as the Eiffel Tower.
Around 20 famous songs of the 1970s genius will be performed by prominent French artists, including stars of “Nortre Dame de Paris” and “Romeo and Juliette” musicals.
The show was custom-made by producer Christophe Barratier, known for his films “The Chorus” and “Paris 36.” For more authenticity, special retro-style decorations and costumes have been recreated to evoke the epoch of Dassin’s times.
In the early ‘70s there was no place in France you could visit where Dassin’s music didn’t ring.
His songs raved at the top of the French music charts. Apart from French and English, this talented French-American polyglot, also recorded songs in German, Russian, Spanish, Italian and Greek.
Sunday, March 13, 7 p.m., Palats Ukraina, 103 Velyka Vasylkivska St., 247-2303. Tickets: Hr 150-2200.
