Yes, it’s already been 20 years since Claude Nougaro, the Toulouse cantor, left us. Born into music to a baritone father at the Paris Opera and a mother who won first prize in piano at the National Conservatory of Music. This kid, with an eventful life, was stuck between the freedom of his poetry and the rhythm of the played notes.
A character, a temperament as we said at the time in “showbiz” circles. It is on part of his chaotic and random path that the musical author and the photographic author, Luc Douche, take a part of the road. One is on tour, the other stores a flood of images both on stage and in the life of work and preparation.
