Next Autumn, Paris will host two concerts given by former Eurovision Song Contest artists. On October 10th, Anna Vissi (Greece 80, Cyprus 82 and Greece 06) is performing at “Le Grand Rex”, a famous music hall of the capital-city. On the day before, she will sing in Brussels (Belgium), at “Le Cirque royal”.

On November 16th, another Euro-veteran, and twice contender for the Eurovision Song Contest crown, is expected at L'Olympia, the most famous Parisian concert hall. Tereza Kesovija (Monaco 66 and Yugoslavia 72) will be accompanied by the Great orchestra of Croatia.

This is not the first time that the Croatian artist has given concerts in France. She recorded a number of records in France, from the mid-60's to the early 80's, including a French version of her 1972 Yugoslavian entry, under the title "La musique et toi". Another interesting fact is that she published a vocal version of the "Te deum" of Marc-Antoine Charpentier, the Eurovision Song Contest hymn.
