Henri Dès in Clermont-Ferrand

Henri Dès is a Swiss singer-songwriter, born in 1940, who writes and performs French-language music for children. He represented Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest with “Retour” before building a repertoire that includes “La petite Charlotte,” “Le beau tambour” and “Les bêtises à l’école.” Henri Dès has returned repeatedly to the Olympia in Paris, and several of his appearances there were documented on live albums. His family concerts centre on his singing and guitar, supported by accompanying musicians, and he has taken that format to theatres in French-speaking cities including Geneva and Brussels.
