Belle Musette  French Music Trio

Bonjour mes amis! Come and hear the enchanting music of Paris recreated by Belle Musette. Take a trip through the golden age of French musette and chanson with Belle Musette, an ensemble specialising in the music of Paris from the 1930's to the 1960's. from the traditional waltz through to tango, gypsy swing and chanson (popular French song), this is music to inspire dancing and reminiscing!

Belle Musette is Jo Abbott (piano accordion and vocals); David Krycer (guitar, harmonica and vocals) and Robert Severini (double bass and vocals). Belle Musette was enthusiastically received by audiences, (francophones and francophiles alike!) on their 2011 regional Victorian tour where more than one audience member embraced the performers with their words 'You remind us of our wonderful times in Paris"
Other memorable performances include Bastille Day balls; french themed dinners; festivals such as Brisbane's OzManouche Gypsy Jazz festival; concerts at The Boite; Surrey Music Cafe and Glen Eira's Winter Music festival series; the Famous Spiegeltent for the Melbourne festival; functions locally and interstate (Sydney Opera House and Vue de Monde) and numerous private functions.
The members use their own performances and studies in France to research and further extend the band's authentic sound and repertoire.
