AZNAVOUR ALWAYS SEEN AT THE TOP OF POSTER - LE FIGARO
[ Part 2.2: "Attached Text" ]
16:53 * 22.05.14
The American public considers him a great myth of the French culture;
in Europe he is looked upon as a great star, Le Figaro says in an
article dedicated to the great French-Armenian singer Charles Aznavour
who turns 90 today.
“He is now conducting a tour around the globe for no other
apparent reason than for the mere joy of practicing his art which
has been his job for six decades now,” writes the publication,
adding that 'good-bye' is not the right word for the great musician
who travels to different countries, continuing his concert tours.
“Explanations are no longer needed in light of such a brilliant
repertoire that tells about the golden years of the French chanson,
with Aznavour being one of its latest ambassadors,” says the
article.
The singer is not going to hold big celebrations like most of his
friends, as he does not think it is something that suits his age.
Instead, he is going to give a concert in Berlin later today.
The 90-year-old singer is working on a new album to bring up new
themes. It will be ready for release at the end of this year.
“Being on stage gives you wings,” Aznavur said recently
in an interview with a German publication, adding that he wishes to
live up to the age of 120.
