Tatyana Kolosova & Marina Makarova present “Paris, je t’aime” — an intimate evening of French chanson, songs of old Paris, and music from beloved French cinema. Tatyana Kolosova is a vocalist, actress, and storyteller. She graduated from the Rimsky-Korsakov College at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory and built her career in both academic musical theater and major musicals, including Nord-Ost, Hair, and Cinderella. In New York, she performs as a singer with various musicians, teaches, and is the founder and artistic director of the puppet theater “Chest of Tales. People and Puppets.” Together with Marina Makarova, she is also part of the musical project Cinderella by Alexey Ivashchenko and Dmitry Bykov. Marina Makarova is a brilliant jazz pianist, a graduate of the Gnessin Academy of Music, and a laureate of international competitions. Her musicality and technical mastery allow her to perform with virtuosity across genres, from ballet to gospel. She has appeared at prestigious venues including Iridium, Birdland, Louis Armstrong House Museum, Kitano, Opera America National Center, Davidzon Radio, MORA, and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Her recent performances include Israel’s 75th Anniversary Concert, the February Jazz Fundraiser at Essence Studio, Rock’N Soul at Manhattan Beach Shtieble, “Jews and Jazz,” the Golden Talents Show, and “Gospel Meets Jazz” with the legendary Victor Jones. Together, we create a romantic and immersive musical experience filled with charm, nostalgia, and the magic of France.
