Under the cobblestones, songs... and forgotten stories. With this in mind, François Morel, accompanied byAntoine Sahler and a troupe of talented artists, takes over the auditorium of the Musée d'Orsay for four exceptional performances. Ce qu'a vu le pavé revisits the popular songs born in the suburbs and cabarets of Belle Époque Paris, those that accompanied the city's great transformations and the anonymous destinies that populated it.

Surrounded by Judith Chemla, Juliette, Lucrèce Sassellaand virtuoso musicians(Thibaud Defever, Muriel Gastebois, Amos Mâh), François Morel brings these forgotten songs back to life, mixing covers and original compositions. The show should make the voices of the past resonate, those of legendary Montmartre figures such as Aristide Bruant and Yvette Guilbert, while confronting them with a contemporary sensibility.

This musical and theatrical fresco evokes the disenfranchised, the mythologized thugs, the flashy posters promoting absinthe or cabaret shows, and the women of the street whose story is too often ignored.
With Antoine Sahler on piano, trumpet and accordion, and arrangements that bridge the gap between tradition and modernity, Ce qu'a vu le pavé is both a musical show and a vibrant tribute to popular culture. Already reunited for the centenary of Georges Brassens, the artists here continue their work of transmission and reinterpretation, to make these songs steeped in history heard in a new way.
