An Evening with Claude Bourbon
The last time this Frenchman came to the Rear Window, he delivered a show that was well above all our expectations. The only difference between his debut performance and this Friday night is that Bourbon has, of course, grown better and better with age. Claude not only delivers great music and song, but his sense of humor is well-above-average and he keeps his audience entertained with plenty of laughter, too. Please make you plans to come and welcome this international troubador back to the Rear Window stage. This is a show you will not want to end!
Billed as a pre Valentine's blues infused, evening of guitar and song, well-travelled on both sides of the Atlantic, UK based Swiss French singer songwriter Claude Bourbon weaves his songs through the audience as if on a journey through life taking in different flavors of Europe and beyond. His Spanish medieval blues evolved into Gypsy, Eastern European, with a splash of Paco de Lucia, Delta Blues and more.
Holding audience attention under a musical spell, the stunningly lit Victorian Chapel venue, Royal Victoria Country Park, proved the perfect setting for the man and his Gibson. A simply stunning rendition of Gershwin's 'Summertime' had those Valentine partners dancing with a rapturous audience applause for this timeless classic.
The simple stage set of red and black blended with evocative coloured uplighting on the ornate Chapel ceiling. Twelve red roses graced the table and formed the cue for the well-received encore with a bluesy song of the same name. Soon to be off on a 34 gig tour of the US and Canada, Claude Bourbon was a popular Chapel Sessions artist.
