Johnny Symphonique Tour

The story continues... 23 dates across France from 10 November 2027 to March 2028. " Yvan Cassar Yvan Cassar came to this conviction over more than 15 years in which he accompanied Johnny as musical director.

It is the starting point of a unique project entrusted to him: to bring back all the power and emotion of Johnny Hallyday's voice as it resonated in concert, while offering it the sonic setting that studio recordings make possible.

Two albums grew from this ambition: JOHNNY in 2019, then ACTE II in 2021. Both rest on an unprecedented principle: preserving Johnny Hallyday's live vocal takes and magnifying them with new arrangements, sometimes symphonic, sometimes deliberately stripped back.

A faithful tribute to the artist, with the intensity that only the stage could reveal. The public's response exceeded all expectations. An idea then naturally emerged: to return these songs to their place of origin. The stage.

In May 2022, JOHNNY SYMPHONIQUE set out on a first tour of twenty dates. Under the direction of Yvan Cassar, more than one hundred musicians, a choir and spectacular visual creation accompany Johnny's voice, reproduced on three giant screens.

The greatest classics regain their breath: Diego, libre dans sa tête, L'Envie, Allumer le feu, Que je t'aime, but also Marie, Sang pour sang and Je te promets.

Faced with the public's enthusiasm, a new series of concerts was scheduled for spring 2024, enriched with new titles including Gabrielle, Noir c'est noir, or the legendary rhythm and blues medley devised by Johnny in the sixties.

The repertoire expands, and the emotion remains intact. In total, these two tours brought together more than 100,000 spectators. In 2027, as the public prepares to commemorate the tenth anniversary of Johnny Hallyday's death, JOHNNY SYMPHONIQUE opens a new chapter.
