Ex-porn queen performs Mahler
mainThe French cabaret artiste Catherine Ringer is used to pushing out boundaries.
In the 1970s she appeared in pornographic movies. Later she formed a rock band, Les Rita Mitsouko.
Later still, she has taken to Mahler.
Rather movingly, as I hope you’ll agree from this nightclub performance of the Adagietto from the 5th symphony. Here’s the video.
Lovely, in a funky way, and such a welcome relief from those strident Brazilians.
