More than thirty years ago, in January 1993, Florent Pagny was part of the adventure of the very first "Taratata." Since then, his voice, his freedom, and his interpretive power have accompanied the history of the show. At La Seine Musicale, Nagui gives Florent Pagny carte blanche. Surrounded by his musicians and artist friends, he offers an exceptional interlude that is intimate, generous, and emotionally charged. This unique concert celebrates the release of his new album, Grandeur Nature, a personal, luminous record in which the singer evokes courage, resilience, and hope. True to the spirit of the show, this special is also punctuated by improvisations around Alain Lanty's piano and exchanges with Nagui for sincere and intimate moments.
