SUMMARY:Isabelle Georges’ Oh là là! and International Song Fest
DESCRIPTION:\nISABELLE GEORGES “Oh la la” direct from Paris!  a joyful
  combination of musical theatre\, French songs\, classical\, jazz and Yidd
 ish musicParisian cabaret star Isabelle Georges returns to Chicago with he
 r trademark soaring vocals and theatrical delivery. Michel Legrand’s mus
 e will lead you on a passionate journey through the French repertoire and 
 beyond\, featuring the music of Edith Piaf\, Jacques Brel\, Charles Aznavo
 ur and Charles Trenet along with original compositions\, including a song 
 by Maury Yeston. An unbeatable mixture of jazz\, cabaret\, and pop. “She
 ’s every inch a star\,” wrote The Scotsman. Chicago music agent Barb B
 ailey gushes: Parisian Cabaret Singer\, Dancer\, Storyteller\, Isabelle G
 eorges and her Music Director\, Frederik Steenbrink\, are a Tour de Force 
 unto themselves. Fueled with high energy\, Isabelle’s performance casts 
 a spell on her audience\, begging the question\, “Can it get any better 
 than this?”Witty and enchanting – she turns on a dime\, soaring into a
 n impossible high note –then descending into a breathy\, soft dynamic - 
 a true triple threat that is undeniable. Isabelle’s passion and stories 
 leave us transfixed.And Frederik’s compelling\, imaginative arrangements
  foster her unpredictable\, sometimes almost unattainable musical riffs th
 at are the signature of a one-of-a-kind artist.  Isabelle Georges and Fre
 derik Steenbrink are a Master Class in live performance – the kind of en
 tertainment you only see once in a lifetime! Accompanied by Frederik Stee
 nbrink and the Kevin King combo.The second set of the evening is Chicago P
 aris Cabaret Connexion’s International Song Fest\, emceed and directed b
 y Lou Ella Rose of SamaSama Project with a dozen singers offering songs in
