Amuz Distribution’s Alex Avon, VP of Global Distribution announced that the rights to Le Grand Concert de la SuperFrancoFête were acquired through a partnership between TV5 Québec Canada, its partners and TV5Monde, in order to make this ambitious project available internationally in the markets served by TV5Monde and Pour Toi Céline to RTS in Switzerland for broadcast in Spring 2024.
Le Grand Concert de la SuperFrancoFête is hosted by a solid quartet of entertainers from different generations and backgrounds: Roch Voisine, Cœur de pirate, Gims and Mentissa. Celebrating French-speaking music in a major way on the same stage, the program features twenty artists representing ten countries from the French-speaking world, including Diane Dufresne, Khaled, Axelle Red, Emilie-Claire Barlow, Ycare, Claudio Capéo, Sarahmée, Pierre de Maere, Marie-Josée Lord, Radio Radio, Bilal Hassani, Le Flofranco and many others! For music enthusiasts and lovers of the French language, this is an event not to be missed! Filmed live at Quebec City in August 2023.
Pour Toi Céline features more than fifteen great Francophonie performers including: Isabelle Boulay, Corneille, Roch Voisine, Véronic DiCaire, Mario Pelchat and Bruno Pelletier among Quebec artists, and with international artists Camille Lellouche, Amir, Christophe Willem, Élodie Frégé, Anggun, Chimène Badi, Vincent Niclo, Axelle Red, Ycare and Anne Sila. Songs were recreated from the album D’Eux, and other titles taken from the collaboration with Jean-Jacques Goldman to showcase their love for these works. Artists on stage are some of Céline’s closest collaborators, including Scott Price, Céline’s musical director since 2015, who provided musical direction and was accompanied by 13 musicians and 3 backup singers from Céline’s tour or Las Vegas showcase. Filmed live in September 2023.
