After a first album (Mouton Mouillé) and work together with the French artist Grand Corps Malade, the chanson française quintet “Tout Finira Bien” is back with “Au Cœur”, an impressionist fresco in 14 scenes.
Gilles Bourgain, an off-beat composer-engineer-poet-flautist, tactfully serves up words that are gentle and hard by turns and bring us into a singular world of contradictions: between contemplation and commitment, the day-to-day and the philosophical, joy and pain.

Chamber music, electronic sounds, symphony orchestra, music box… A journey.
