Gilbert Montagné « L'Amour dans ses Mains »

In Lille, at the Théâtre Sébastopol, on June 6, 2027, Gilbert Montagné presents L’Amour dans ses Mains, an evening focused on the piano and the songs that shaped his career. A singer, songwriter and instrumentalist, he moves between pop, disco and touches of soul, with clear melodies and choruses that quickly lodge in the ear. From beginnings marked by “The Fool” to the French-language hits that soundtracked the 1980s, he unfolds a thread in which love, celebration and simple stories take center stage, never taking his eyes or hands off the keyboard.

On stage, the piano remains the center of the action: luminous riffs, a pulsing left hand, interludes that lay down the groove. Montagné alternates between dance numbers and ballads, reimagines his catalogue without freezing it, and lets his songs breathe with a well-honed live dynamic. This Lille date offers a concise overview of his repertoire, placing emphasis on voice, touch and the exchange with the audience. L’Amour dans ses Mains synthesizes his pop-variety DNA, the centrality of the keyboard and the taste for singalong choruses, for a concert conceived in the present.
