Concert : Soirée Parisienne

Here is the link to the Huntsville Festival of the Arts.

This was a big project for me!
It all started with the documentary I made on Nisha Coleman, my very close friend from Huntsville. The ironic part of this, is that we really got to know each other in Paris, while living there at the same time. She's a violinist and was busking in the streets of Paris. Last year, I gave a copy of the documentary "Nisha's Four Seasons" to Rob Saunders, one of the organisers of the Huntsville Festival of the Arts...offering him to use it, if a film festival was taking place in the winter time. After watching it, he asked if I had plans on building on it...ie turning into a concert...
I talked with Nisha...and after some brainstorming sessions, we came up with a multi-media, multi-sensory show: piano, violin, video, text, smells, tastes...

Here is the video of the concert. I do apologise for the poor sound quality.
