Description Cabaret of 24 unlinked Brel songs, though …there was a definite momentum covering the full range of bittersweet melancholia, with sombre numbers juxtaposed by jauntier ones. There is a cruel beauty to them all: they seduce you with gorgeous melodies, then sting you with a vicious twist….
