Le Monastier-sur-Gazeille is known by musicians as this is the place of the "Festival du Monastier" (aka "Festival de Cuivres"), a great meeting centered around "brass".

40 concerts - in 7 days (!!) - in a town with a population of below 2000. Volunteers and a supporting community of music lovers make this festival possible.

Chloé Cailleton and the MNBigBand paid homage to great Serge Gainsbourg and gave the audience with "Gainsbourg in Jazz" a very jazzy experience. It was something like a "rediscovery" of music I had nearly forgotten.

The video has a bigband-version of Gainsbourg´s "Ma lou Marilou"
