Children’s show: “Alain Moisan et le Carnaval des animaux” (Alain Moisan and the Carnival of the Animals)

At the end of the 1980s, Alain Moisan, a primary-school teacher, took a leave of absence to devote some time to music. He started out as a cabaret singer, but then began writing children’s songs, as he himself puts it. Thirty years later, it’s a professional, seasoned and fulfilled children’s singer that we’ll be meeting again in Méribel.

The hero of these “comic-strips”, Kids coyote, alias Alain Moisan, has had many adventures.

By turns a poet in a pirogue with coconuts, or a conqueror on his wooden horse, he leads the young audience along in his footsteps, questioning them, taking them as witnesses without giving them time to breathe.

Every child will find his or her own dance step, because alone or with Les Rascals, his fearsome group of musicians, he’s ready to take on any enfants terribles they might encounter.

Because Alain knows: his songs soften the hardest, stimulate the softest and get them dancing to colorful rhythms brought back from the four corners of the world, before a return to calm with “An ba coco la”!
