FRENCH SONG – “MAXIME ET MOI” by YVES JAMAIT – Piano and vocals
Yves Jamait shares his musical journey with Maxime Le Forestier, accompanied by Michel Haumont and Jérôme Broyer – first half in collaboration with Chant’appart

My encounter with Maxime Le Forestier, back when I was a teenager, was a shock that thoroughly shook up the preconceptions I was stuck in. It turned my whole world upside down. Maxime was a catalyst.
So, quite naturally (…and because the desire had been gnawing at me for a long time already…) that the idea came to me for a show in which I will tell you about and sing my own version of Maxime, and share with you the pleasure I’ve had in travelling through time with his work as a constant backdrop.
I’ll be accompanied, for this, by Michel Haumont, the maestro of picking who has often collaborated with Maxime, and by Jérôme Broyer, whose excellence and creativity have inspired me for over ten years.
This, then, is an invitation to embark on a journey, to weave the vines of time, to which I invite you so that we may smile through our tears together.

First act, in collaboration with Les Chant’appart: ‘La mine de Léo’ (as a duet).

Our verdict: “We can’t wait to welcome Yves Jamait, who has been a fixture on the French music scene for over 20 years. His voice, his poetry, his charisma… we love this poet-musician. His reinterpretations of Maxime Le Forestier’s songs are of sublime elegance.”
