From 1968 to 1981, Yves Montand deserted the stage and dedicated himself entirely to cinema. But when, in September 1973, the coup d'état in Chile led to a large number of political refugees arriving in France, he could not remain indifferent. It was in their favor that, true to his left-wing commitments, Yves Montand returned to the Olympia stage on February 12, 1974, for a unique concert broadcast live on the radio. After very brief preparation, which he himself compared to an athlete's training, the man who "sings with his body," according to Marilyn Monroe's expression, revisited his hits, Jacques Prévert's songs, and the Commune songs that he had helped popularize. All of this, accompanied by the faithful Bob Castella and his orchestra, with furiously joyful energy!
